Did you ever notice that really smart people and really dumb people have the same general physical appearance? This young woman ... I hope ... is either the M.I.T. Homecoming Queen or someone's precious retarded daughter.

People who wear coke-bottle glasses and dress about two decades out of vogue either spend a majority of their time computing the quantum function of subatomic particles or playing with things they found in their nose.

That's not to suggest the two can't be done at the same time - in fact, I'm reasonably certain that some of the Theory of Relativity was merely an idle thought that occurred to Einstein when he was otherwise absorbed in popping his blackheads on the edge of a slide-rule.

A point was forthcoming but after that particular thought, does it really matter?
