Point 3: I do *not* for one second believe that learning disabilities such

Einstein have learning disabilities? I'm fairly certain he did not do well
academically in elementary school.

Jill,
You are correct. In fact, Einstein (whose name has become synonymous with
superior intelligence) was himself dyslexic.
