[Technology] Who is the cleverest person in the world

[Frankie]

Depends how you define cleverness i suppose , Pascal Gross has to be right up there when it comes to how to figure out the best way to pass the ball to another player with the minimum of effort to produce the maximum prefered result , my postman has discovered that if he leaves the sorting office 15 minutes later than he is supposed to , he actually finishes his rounds 40 minutes earlier than he should , due to traffic algorithms and people being indoors to sign for goods , so it's all relative , yes Gross will never find the cure for the common cold and my postman will not be at the queens tea party for his fine work in the field of delivering mail but cleverness is diverse in it's very nature .

[MENTION=1958]Gazwag[/MENTION] surely in the running for cleverest?

Alright alright Mr Bloom's PA

I was hoping this thread had disappeared to page 2 by now or a nice considerate mod would delete some posts

Mr Dyson , without him my floors would be a awash with tiny particles of skin and armies of hideous looking blood sucking bugs .

Do you live in the House of Commons?

I know somebody very clever in the astrology world that cant stand Cox

Is it Russell Grant?

"Drivel-filled streams of consciousness"?It explains a lot if you post while unconscious.I always assumed you were foreign and used Google Translate.

Please don't argue. This thread was started for us to be nice to each other.

My teenage son reckons he knows everything so I guess it could be him.

My teenage son reckons he knows everything so I guess it could be him.

Anyone who has had a teenager can identify with that one

I beg to offer readers some of the greatest words ever written, by any man-

"Generals gather in their masses
Just like witches at Black masses"

Genius.
Pure, pure genius.

 

[Westdene Seagull]

Is it Russell Grant?

I have a hunch that Russell probably likes Cox rather a lot.

Grigori Perelman as he solved the Poincaré conjecture.

That is the sort of thing that clever people do.

Grigori Perelman as he solved the Poincaré conjecture.

His Wikipedia page makes me realise just how dense I am.
I couldn't make head nor tail of most of the text and now my brain hurts.

 

[Colonel Angus]

In my world it has to be me. The rest of you are just figments of my imagination

If THIS is your World, then I think that rules you out of the 'clever' definition. It needs more work.

At 0.05, Homer writes a 3 to complete what appears to be a rebuttal of Fermat's last theorem, thought to be impossible. So I guess it must be Homer Simpson, or Matt Groening.

Now that we have lost Stephen Hawking?

Is it Proff Brian Cox?

Discuss.

Is it the keyboard player from D:Ream?

No. No it is not.

Gordon Strachan wrote in his biography that Mark McGhee is the most intelligent man he's ever met in football.

Could do a job?

There's a chap called Stanislas Liebler who keeps getting nominated for a Nobel Prize in Physics and nominated for a Nobel Prize in Chemistry and nominated for a Nobel Prize in Medicine.

You have inside knowledge? Nominations for those three prizes are not revealed until 50 years after the prize has been awarded.

If only Christopher Hitchens was still with us .

Is the next verse about him working in a chip shop and thinking he is Elvis?
