>After 1971 he also took amphetamines, despite the concern of his friends, one of whom (Ron Graham) bet him $500 that he could not stop taking the drug for a month.[18] Erdős won the bet, but complained that during his abstinence, mathematics had been set back by a month: "Before, when I looked at a piece of blank paper my mind was filled with ideas. Now all I see is a blank piece of paper." After he won the bet, he promptly resumed his amphetamine use.

Paul Erdos confirmed for crutch-using brainlet.

This lad

cos he's the only well known mathematician/physicist that I've met and he's gonna be riding the crest of whatever new physics field develops in the next ten years

Met him at PI. Nice guy
