Caano Geel Posted August 8, 2005 Of Paul Erdős the "second most prolific mathemacian" of all time " ... he also took amphetamines (speed), despite the concern of his friends, who bet him $500 that he could not stop taking amphetamines for a month. Erdős won the bet, but complained that mathematics had been set back by a month. He complained, "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." The bet won, he promptly resumed his habit " source need anything else be said ... well actually, kids dont try this at home ...

Faarax-Brawn Posted August 8, 2005 "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." I wonder,what he would have said if he was given placebos. Would he still be able to have a mind 'filled with ideas' or a blank mind. Thats what am more interested in.
