The guy may be intellegent, but he sounds like he has a bad ego. I've
also found a lot of people that flaunt their big titles and list of
degrees to show proof of their intellegence to errrr... not be so
intellegent.
Say you did think this guy was the most stupid person on earth; if he
were so intellegent wouldn't he have just accepted that, giggled knowing
you were wrong, and then worked towards solving his problem - using your
perception of him as an advantage somehow? Isn't his mission to solve a
problem? Should it matter if he solved his problem with the assistance
of somebody who thought he was stupid or intellegent? And if he were so
intellegent, doesn't him focussing on other peoples perception of his
intellegence say a little something about his intellegence?
People and their egos - so lame.
