Re: Mental illness
I seem to recall reading that Tesla had bipolar, OCD AND possibly some traits of ASD.
Also worth mentioning is that Einstein almost certainly had some brain abnormality associated with autism, they proved this conclusively but he may have made up the deficit because of the high number of glial cells to feed energy to the neurons.

I guess it proves that we are doomed with the LHC because only a nutcase will get the deeper insight of how dangerous the LHC and he will be put into a sanatorium and not believed.
Sort of like how Jor El wasn't believed in the 1st Superman movie ...
JOR-EL
(suddenly angry)
It's suicide! No, it's worse. It's genocide!
FIRST ELDER
(no longer friendly)
Be warned, Jor-El. The Council has already evaluated this outlandish theory of yours.
JOR-EL
My friends, you know me to be neither rash nor impulsive. I'm not given (starts walking) to wild, unsupported statements. And I tell you that we must evacuate this planet immediately!
FIRST ELDER
Jor-El, you are one of Krypton's greatest scientists...
SECOND ELDER
Ah, yes, but so is (gesturing) Vond-Ah.
VOND-AH
(comes forward, an elegant brown-haired woman of middle age. There is no House crest on her chest. She stares at the revolving intelligence source before looking to JOR-EL)
It isn't that I question your data. The facts are undeniable.
JOR-EL stares at her as VOND-AH walks around the intelligence source, and then smiles thinly at him.
VOND-AH
(gesturing at the intelligence source, but still looking at JOR-EL)
It's your conclusions I find unsupportable.
JOR-EL
(stares at VOND-AH as she comes to a halt before him)
This planet will explode within 30 days. If not sooner.
There is consternation again amongst the ELDERS.
VOND-AH
I tell you Krypton is simply shifting its orbit.
SECOND ELDER
(coming forward)
Jor-El, be reasonable.
JOR-EL
(coming forward to him)
My friend. (places his hands on the ELDER's shoulders) I have never been otherwise. This madness is yours.
FIRST ELDER
(snaps firmly)
This discussion is terminated. The decision of the Council is final.
There is a short pause. All the other ELDERS and VOND-AH gather together, standing away from JOR-EL.
FIRST ELDER
(to JOR-EL)
Any attempt by you to create a climate of fear and panic among the populace must be deemed by us an act of insurrection.
JOR-EL
(looks angry)
You would accuse me of insurrection? Has it now become a crime, to cherish life?
FIRST ELDER
You would be banished to endless imprisonment in the Phantom Zone - the eternal void, which you yourself discovered.
There is momentary silence. The FIRST ELDER maintains eye contact with JOR-EL.

Re: Mental illness
Hi folks! I am back.
I don't know if this is mentioned before, but I wonder why nobody edited the "LHC predictions" into the nice end-of-the-world predictions list in Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_da ... tic_events
Maybe I am going to do that, if I find a neat professional way to put it.
From that list, ignoring the silly "blood moons" prediction for this year, we are safe until the high luminosity extension of the LHC
Oh yes, and Ivan didn't update his page for years. Maybe he is out of ideas (the idea that he could be convinced the LHC is safe can be safely ignored).
BTW: beam is in the LHC _right now_ as I am writing this. Beam 2 just threaded, they are now optimizing the beam 1 trajectory.
And of course the world is not going to end.
Actually I do hope the LHC is going to produce black holes, because that would mean extra dimensions are found! They are going to be really hard to detect, and they will only know afterwards they were there, but the scientific value would be enormous. The run last year didn't have enough energy to make any, but this run might.
This article could help explaining what a black hole in the LHC actually means:

Re: Mental illness
Speaking as someone with ADHD and depression I find your use of the word 'nutcase' to describe those whose brains work in a non-standard manner to be deeply insulting and sadly typical of the mainstream dismissal of mental issues that does so much harm to our society.chelle wrote:Same thing for Henry Cavendish and Paul Dirac:Conundrum wrote:I seem to recall reading that Tesla had bipolar, OCD AND possibly some traits of ASD.

It may be that you were trying to be deliberately provocative, if so congratulations, you can consider me well and truly provoked.
