Ers Sidis did a lot more than that. He was a significant if unheralded 
libertarian theorist by the end of his life - got rid of the 
anarcho-socialism and was pretty much over to minarchical libertarianism. He 
also figured out some good stuff about the Native Americans, as mentioned in 
"Lila." I leave aside his interesting fantasia that predicted black holes - 
which is *really* odd, in that it's pure 19th century thermodynamics and has 
no Einsteinian factors at all; yet it's pretty beautiful, making life a sort 
of intrinsic quality of the universe - there he precedes recent's Anthropic 
theories in philosophical physics.

Some neat Sidis libertarianism:

Sidis always been one of the guys I most wished I could have sat down with, 
even just looked in his eyes. What would that have been like? Amy Wallace 
did a very good book on him - compared him to Ayn Rand's geniuses on strike.
