In other words: Newton, brilliant of a lot of things, not so on many other things. We need to accept that, as his attempts to produce gold and invest his money show.

For the record, something very bad will happen by the third Sunday, of the third month, of the 2033 year. Not necessarily on that day, but by then.

Isn't that just called an "entrepreneur" these days?

On the gold thing maybe I was too harsh...shouldn't judge him because I read Wikipedia some 300 later.

But, basically a great actor or scientist's opinion, outside his field, shouldn't be given extra attention or credibility.
