72Are All Geniuses Crazy?
Satirical look at the overused media premise that those with mathematical genius are somehow closely connected with mental disorders, such as paranoid schizophrenia. Why is that?

Whatever you oppose presents itself as a gift to you of learning and enhanced understanding. That unexpected realization is punch drunk enlightenment!
