>Kicked Edison's ass when he was alive

Excuse me, which one died alone and insane, and which one died as a national hero famed (even erroneously) for bringing light to the world?

Better scientist sure, kicked anyone's ass no.

One day students of all ages will read about me in their science and math textbooks. They'll read about my amazing discoveries that forever changed human civilization. People will write books about me and there will be lengthy documentaries that reveal more about me than I knew about myself. People all over will know my famous equations by heart. Hell, there will even be foundations and schools and prizes named after me. My name will be synonymous with the word genius and leaders around the world will hearken unto my advice. One day, I will be gone, but there will be no day when I am forgotten.
