So, Philosophicus thinks he's a genius...?
To me, a genius is someone who opens up a hidden window onto the absurd universe, like Werner Reyneke, aka Philosophicus. I know his real name because I happened to stumble onto an interesting site called Useless-Knowledge.com where he his a columnist and read his article "What is Genius". I read all his other articles as well - simply the works of a rare philosophical genius! I myself have a masters degree in Philosophy and am busy working on my Phd. I have to admit that Philosophicus/Werner Reyneke is utterly original and revolutionary in his ideas. You're probably wondering how I got his real name, I mean everyone uses pseudonymns around here - well, I emailed him a compliment on his extraordinary articles on the website Useless-knowledge and he told me about this philosophy forum and also to read the posts under the name Philosophicus - am I a great sleuth or what!
