Kurt Godel
« on: April 05, 2013, 04:23:12 PM »




As you can see by the above picture of him chumming around with Albert Einstein, Kurt Godel was a very, very smart man. His Incompleteness Theorem changed the science community’s understanding of logic, he has a mathematical function (Godel numbering) named after him, and look—up there. With Einstein, palling around.

Very, very smart people are known to have quirks and eccentricities, in case you were unaware, and Godel was no exception. Later in his life he became exceedingly paranoid, and specifically became afraid that people were trying to poison him. As such, he refused to eat food prepared by anyone other than his wife—ever. With no exceptions. You may see where this is going.

When Godel’s wife became ill and was hospitalized for six months, he literally wasted away. He died on January 14, 1978, weighing all of 65 pounds; the death certificate listed the cause of death as, “malnutrition and inanition caused by personality disturbance”, which is kind of a more formal way to say that he died of being a stubborn bastard. -- http://listverse.com/

poor godel.  despite his genius, he never learned to cook for himself.  if only he knew way ahead about pope francis and fr chic, they who always knew how to cook for themselves.  his genius would have been complete.

Hmm, I guess the tragedy was occasioned not so much by his disinterest in cooking but rather by his doting on his wife... :)
