OMG. My life has been shattered.

I thought Kamil9876= Terry Tao. I googled the image, and 6th one was Kamils DP. It looked realistic!


Damn I thought that was him too!

As for Einstein (who apparently had asperges syndrome) I know that his genius did not come out until his 20's but the thought process he had with these theories is truely remarkable.

Oh for fucks sake! are you serious?

why would Terence Tao hang out on a vce website, when he probably didnt even do vce.

wow

Nooooo. You got it mixed up. I never KNEW who Terence Tao was! Therefore when I saw Kamils display picture I thought that dude was him

I knew it wasn't Terry Tao either. I thought it was actually Kamil aswell, because if you look at his posts he does sound exceptionally good at maths and I thought he had a photo of himself infront of the blackboard.

In that case, can I put a picture of like Jennifer Hawkins as my display picture and say that's me?  :P

Jennifer Hawkins is a lot more famous/celebrity amongst the populace though! Ask most people and they never would have heard of Terence. Whereas ms Universe is televised to I think ti was 1 billion people around the world.

Haha, I at least have Quantams understanding on this. :P

Hey! No, no, SORRY! To be honest I wasn't sure if you were kidding! And I HATE that smiley, whenever I use it, it isn't like the MSN one CTRl+P. If only it SMILED a little, one would tell it is a joke.

Misunderstanding. :). It's because MANY people on this site start arguments from simple posts like I just posted before, so I was trying to quash any debate. But yeah, looks like you're not one of them :)

Woooo Terry Tao. I knew all those facts about him though. He does have a rather awesome blog:
http://terrytao.wordpress.com/
(Though half the posts go over my head...)
Also check out this sweet video of one of his lectures on prime numbers:
http://wwwmaths.anu.edu.au/events/tao-22-9-09.flv

Watching it now, its pretty good.. I needed to use some downloads.. Even though this stuff is x12831723127387128638 over my head, its still a good video.

Edit: Nvm, its not hard to understand -.-

But wow >.< I've never been this 'wow' about maths, yeahk go bag me for being a nublet etc >.>
