"They've both been accused of failing to give due credit to other people's work, if not outright plagiarism." Heh! Indeed. I like the Stephen Wolfram scrapbook/timeline on his website, parading his endless list of mighty accomplishments. I'm particularly fond of the one that starts out with, "1984: Feynman tries to disprove that Wolfram is wrong...", and ends up with, "OK, I give up...". |

Beyond the Ego issues (which clearly BOTH had!), there is actually something meaninful. Really meaningful! (a clue is the movie What the &$%$$&% do you know?). It deals with something VERY, VERY FUNDAMENTAL... |
