Never mind. I should know better than to stay out of political threads, unless its something I know a lot about. Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber |

IIRC it was the episode. Not sure if that was the ultimate song or not, probably was. The guy was a nut, but you gotta hand it to someone who promises that with a straight face. The President is a fink. |

I think there is a difference between “talent” and “genius”. There are many artists who can grind out songs, but only a few with the gift to produce works of art effortlessly. I caight part of a “60 Minutes” profile on a young musical prodigy. What cracked me up was her father, who had some musical training in his background, initially thought it was his skill as a teacher that was responsible for his daughter being able to play back melodies after only hearing them once. |

This was a shorter news version You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

Thanks, that’s the one, but the short version didn’t include the interview with the father. Bringing the topic back to this thread, I believe that these prodigies don’t live very long. I wonder if it is because their brains never rest? I’ve got a book about a Hungarian? math prodigy somewhere that backs that up. I’ll have to look for it. |

I am somewhat convinced the more artistically creative you are the more chance for bad brain wiring. The President is a fink. |

I must be OK then, I have no artistic creativity at all.. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I'm more than somewhat convinced that those who are gifted in any one area are lacking in others, usually in basic social skills. Knowledge is Good -- Emil Faber |
