Re: [Elecraft] Genius vs. Stupidity
MANY higher-intelligence folks APPEAR to be "insane" to other folks falling higher up on the bell curve. I am in no way anywhere nearly as intelligent as the Professor, but have had any number of encounters in my 57 years where either the "look" or the actual words from the person with whom I was interacting clearly communicated that they thought I was "insane".

Re: [Elecraft] Genius vs. Stupidity
Don, I usually don’t chime in on these things but I had to throw in my 2 cents worth on this one. I added a line to another popular saying, “You can’t fix Stupid”. I added, “Neither can you legislate intelligence”. Sort of appropriate for 2020, LOL. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year and hopes for a better 2021 to come.

Re: [Elecraft] Genius vs. Stupidity
Don - I also like that quote... sadly there is no credible evidence that Albert Einstein ever said or wrote that. There is evidence that it is significantly older. 73 es Happy Holidays de Dave - K9FN On Wed, Dec 23, 2020 at 7:37 PM Don Wilhelm wrote: > I really like that quote from Albert Einstein. > Ignorance can be cured with information, but stupidity lives on in its > dismissal of facts and information. > > Merry Christmas all, stay safe. > > 73, > Don W3FPR > > On 12/23/2020 7:12 PM, David Ferrington, M0XDF wrote: > > > > > The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its > limits. -- Albert Einstein > > > __ > Elecraft mailing list > Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft > Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm > Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net > > This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net > Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html > Message delivered to dpbu...@gmail.com > __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
