what did Roentgen, Einstein and Tesla have in common?

The biggest thing they all had in common was their aloofness- all were
considered bizarre, uninformed, detached by their family, friends and
colleagues- yet they went on to become the "greats" of their time and even
ours. Remember that the next time someone proposes something that
contradicts modern mainstream thinking, yet turns out to be completely
correct.
