open your mind and eyes... there are many intelligent people out there who aren't obviously so at first glance. You are missing the opportunity to see them and know them and appreciate them. And sometimes, extremely intelligent people do not thrive in an academic environment... this doesn't mean they aren't intelligent.

Albert Einstein was born on March 14, 1879 in Ulm, Germany. His parents were Pauline and Hermann Einstein. It is interesting to note that neither of his parents had any knowledge in the areas of math or science. Even Albert, in his early years, was a very shy but curious kid that showed very little aptitude for anything. In elementary school, Albert was such an under achiever in all subjects other than math and science that his parents suspected that he might be retarded. As it turned out, Albert preferred to learn on his own and had taught himself advanced mathematics and science by the time he was a teenager.
