i have to say this never-ending fixation / worship of Feynman is a bit creepy

  Have you heard of Einstein?

  There's hardly any denying that Feynman was quite a character; he (sometimes spectacularly) failed to live up to our expectations as to how such a brilliant intellect ought to behave. That is probably a significant reason for his enduring appeal; a streetwise, bongo-playing physicist with a talent for quips.

    >"he (sometimes spectacularly) failed to live up to our expectations as to how such a brilliant intellect ought to behave." Can you elaborate on this?
