top 100 living geniuses

an incredibly subjective topic, but most of these lists are. it was "compiled by a panel of six experts in creativity and innovation from creators cynectics, a global consultants firm". number 1? 101 year-old swiss chemist albert hoffman, inventor of lsd. prince is tied for #32.

Very glad they included bin Laden and Leonard Cohen. But no Bob Dylan!

Excuse me, but this "list of geniuses" is, in fact, retarded. Matt Groening #4? Really? Above Nelson Mandela and Grigori Perelman? I do love me some Simpsons, but not quite as much as desegregation, or the secrets of the universe. And Nicholson Baker is the highest-ranked English-language writer in the WORLD? Surely that is news even to Nicholson Baker.

I should have recognized that you felt that way, Quarbs. I apologize for my righteous ranting.
