Richard Dawkins is the smartest man in the world. How do we know? An online poll says so. Here’s what they say:
When Richard Dawkins, the Oxford evolutionary biologist, coined the term “meme” in The Selfish Gene 37 years ago, he can’t have anticipated its current popularity as a word to describe internet fads. But this is only one of the ways in which he thrives as an intellectual in the internet age. He is also prolific on Twitter, with more than half a million followers—and his success in this poll attests to his popularity online.
So he invented the word meme and he’s quite the tweety Dawk. The genius overwhelms us all. So, without further delay,
I give you…

Do amputees buy pairs of shoes and throw one away? Maybe contact others same size feet via Internet? My L shoes always wear out before R.

Never mind.
Smartest man or monkey?
Lady Gaga has ten million Twitter followers. She must be twenty times as smart!
