> Considering Higgs barely published anything for decades after ruination might not be so bad. I'd have never suspected that fame might be a correction to slow progress or discovery. I believe that, in general, fame is a solved problem, but the solution is not available to everyone. Why or how could a professor have an apparatus and plan and staff in place to deal with the challenges of fame? But I think it is a crying shame that just the detail of extreme popularity ruins the work. Even if Professor Higgs had already produced most of his work, as a species and society, everyone and everyone that comes after is hurt by denying him the ability to work and produce, and others before and after him. When will Beatlemania end? Why don't we, collectively, have restraint, have the ability? You'd think as a species by now we would have evolved some kind of completely invisible and odorless biochemical pheromonal response that tells all other humans, "leave me alone, I'm busy." Instead, it takes a staff.
