Nyx Sanguino (Genius Ramses)
Ramses Sanguino has been diagnosed with high-functioning autism and was first discovered after his mother, Nyx Sanguino, began uploading videos to YouTube displaying his unique abilities. Some of those videos show Ramses correctly predicting the value/suit of playing cards and other remarkable talents that defy scientific explanation.
His mother insists that the apparent telepathic gifts are not part of any trickery or deceit, and indeed, researchers are taking a closer look to try and further understand the phenomenon. Dr. Diane Powell has described him as “one of the smartest five-year-olds on the planet.”
In addition to accurately predicting cards and numbers that are randomly generated, Ramses can understand multiple languages, including Greek, Hebrew, Arabic and Japanese, as well as solve algebraic problems.

The sad thing about Savants is that they did this to themselves and they didn’t know it.

Savant from Egyptian campaign has a wierd story
Jules-César Savigny (1777-1851)
Savigny worked closely with the artists to supervise preparation of the plates (for Description de l’Egypte). But Savigny was unable to write annotations for the plates. A neurological disorder struck him in the 1820s and made it impossible for him to work, or even be spoken to about work. Although he did not go blind and could read for short periods, he could not tolerate light and had to wear a veil of black netting. A young naturalist, Victor Audouin, who had not been a member of the Egyptian scientific contingent and was not allowed to speak to Savigny, was asked to identify and describe Savigny’s illustrations based on secondary sources and the evidence of the drawings themselves. Savigny was not supposed to be told of this arrangement, but somehow he learned of it. His own copy of the Description de l’Égypte, which has been preserved, is annotated with his many objections and corrections to Audouin’s frequent mistakes. Link

The Keeper of Records
What is a lady to do? Anata Tapstick has been married to Theophilus Tapstick for more years that she can remember, and in all candour, it is her husband’s fault. He is, or was (or perhaps will be) a mage, but also a savant and a philosopher. Personally I feel it is the philosopher who led the savant and mage astray. With mages, yes life can be nasty, brutal, and come to a spectacularly…

5 janvier 1665 : parution du 1er numéro du Journal des Savants, plus ancien journal littéraire d’Europe ➽ http://bit.ly/Journal-Savants Soutenu par Colbert et fondé par le magistrat Denis de Sallo, le Journal des Savants, traitant notamment des sciences, de la littérature, de l’histoire et de la religion, se propose « de faire sçavoir ce qui se passe de nouveau dans la République des Lettres », mais s’attire rapidement les foudres d’écrivains par les libertés que s’autorisent ses rédacteurs dans leurs comptes-rendus et est suspendu quelques mois plus tard...
