Of course he’s ridiculously smart. A thousand times smarter than me, personally–I still don’t really understand how I won a Davidson Fellowship. But with no international literature or philosophy fairs or Olympiads, it’s impossible to judge us more artistic, less concrete kids like the other fellows. You can point to him and say, “He’s won all these ridiculous titles,” but there’s a kid who completely redesigned the Kansas school system, and of course he doesn’t have any other awards for that.
