When you think of Brad McFall, think of John Nash.

Are you talking about the real John Nash? Or the John Nash the Real John Nash is based on?

I was familiar enough with John Nash to know that the movie was way off base when it had him working as a code-breaker extraordinaire for the Pentagon, but then it took the gratifying twist of revealing it was all a product of his mind, certainly well within the bounds of Hollywood dramatic license. After seeing the movie I read the book, which was full of detail, and I found that the portions describing Nash's communication of his ideas often reminded me of Brad.

Well done! My own contribution to the genre can be found at Message 2 in the Info TransFER DURING Evolution thread.

Remember, Brad, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery!
