Was there ever any doubt?

Newton was the greatest scientist/mathematician of all time. He has no serious competitors. This guy invented calculus and gave us the method for computing the motion of the planets around the sun, navigating to the moon (with a little tweak from Albert) and the flight of a bullet. Amazing.

I think he died a virgin. Someone should check that out. If so it just goes to show how much more we could accomplish if we weren't being distracted all the time by the ladies.

Why are all the cute ones gay? Kind of hard to check that out now, though, isn't it?

You'd be so lucky to be so distracted by the ladies! ROFL! (Just kidding!)

Try putting that and 'Bill Clinton' in the same sentence!

Yeah, but in the end, it didn't do Alan Turing all that much good.

Yup, Newton was terrifed of women. He was probably gay.

Would be fascinating to see the results of this poll if taken on a U.S. campus, where both men have been vilified by feminists for the past couple decades. Newton for being the author of a rape manual (the Principia) and Einstein for his famous "sexed equation" (e=mc2).

I did not make this up. If you don't believe me google it.
