The kind of theorist that can have such a profound impact on so many
areas in physics -- these people are monuments, powerhouses, rarities.
They wield their instincts and their skills so effortlessly and
swiftly that it isn't obvious how they got from point A to point B;
they were at point A one moment and the next moment they had leapt
through the divide and reappeared at point B, as though by external
force. The most mysterious power was their discernment, the almost
infallible judgment that picked out the interesting problems and by
which they macheted their way through the thickets to the solution.

There are geniuses in other fields who also display magical prowess:
<Snip>
They are wondrous treasures, to be
respected for what they can do that no one else can do in quite the
same way.

PD raises a good point!
The "geniuses" that improve the lot of mankind are"wondrous treasures".

It is interesting to compare the "geniuses" that are"wondrous treasures",

with the "geniuses" that have wasted the time, energy and minds of mankind.

After Newton's model, there were immediate and rapid advances in mechanics, astronomy, etc.

After Maxwell's model there were immediate and rapid advances in chemistry, electricity, etc.

After Watson's and Crick's DNA model there were immediate and rapid advances in medicine, genetics, animal husbandry, the history of the Earth and Mankind, etc.

I noticed in the news in the last few days, that the DNA model was recently used to develop a new form of rice that will prevent 500,000 children from going blind EVERY YEAR,

and that it was used to convert blood types, and that people with rare blood types will have a safe supply of blood in the future.,

and I noticed recently, that the DNA model was used to find out that chickens are related genetically to dinosaur.

And of course, that "wondrous treasure" Thomas Edison gave us audio and video recordings, and the "Edison Effect" that lead to the diode, the triode, the transistor, etc.

Contrast the works of these "wondrous treasures", with the following Masters of Conflict and Babble,
that promote models that wasted lives, time, money, and minds.

The authors of the Torah
The authors of the Bible
Moses
Matthew
Mark
Luke
John
Josephus
Nostradamus
Einstein
Murray Gell-Mann
Freud
Karl Marx, Engel, etc.
The NeoCons
The Jewish economists
The Jewish media
The New York Times, Washington Post, Time Inc., etc.
Jewish movies

A mind is a terrible thing to waste.
