This is a very interesting thesis. Moreover, the idea of someone having an extreme amount of several orthogonal qualities (flipping heads five times in a row) is a very useful one, regardless of how closely it matches our use of the word "genius." One implication is that there are probably multiple different types of genius, and that they're good at different things. This changed the way I look at the world, and it's not every day (I wish) you read something you can say that of.
