John Nash...yes, his genius was extraordinary.
I *have* had a brain scan...it showed some abnormalities, but they really couldn't pinpoint exactly what my deal is. They were really good at coming up with fancy ways of saying "we have no clue." Aside from the signs of a lot of head trauma (a tale for another time, perhaps) parts of it seemed overactive. The doctor said the part of my brain that is usually affected by Alzheimer's is so overactive that I'll most likely never have to worry about even coming close to getting it. There also seemed to be a random hole in my brain. I was relieved when they explained that the technology renders parts of the brain that are not active as holes...not that there was an actual hole in my brain!
