My Brilliant Brain - Born Genius Documen...

Marc Yu, a seven-year-old concert pianist. At two he heard "Mary Had A Little Lamb", and immediately played it back, flawlessly. A year ... all » later he was playing Beethoven from memory. Now with a repertoire of more than 40 classical pieces, the young maestro's astounding brain has intrigued experts, such as development psychologist Professor Ellen Winner and neuroscientist Gottfired Schlaug. Winner and Schlaug focus on Marc Yu's achievements, and ask whether hard work is behind his success, or was he simply born with a brilliant brain? They also look at a class of 50 children learning music, and discover a number of changes are taking place in their brains. The experts believe that, given the right nuturing, any one of the youngsters could grow up to become a musical genius

Ellen Winner defined a genius as child who does things at the wrong age....

So if I were having sex at 7, I`d be a genius?

to Bobbyr01: yeah. pretty much i mean, if your still shitting your pants daily... or if you simply don`t do numbers until your in highschool. I grew up with a handful of kids that loved to read but hated math in elementry. These days they write reviews and colorful papers but cant count the change in their pocket.
