As to the silliness of this thread: Seems it isn't silly enough for you not to participate...

I can't re-read the article because I haven't read it. I'm inferring the basis of this thread from its title. And, are genius (and greatness) really only comparable? I understand that we do generally make comparisons, but I also believe that we can recognize genius (and greatness) in isolation.
Who told you I don't like being silly? The cheek!
