Yep. They have much better marketing than Euclid. Lots of folks like
Dickweed and not enough like Mark.

By the way, I read a profile of this 26-year old prodigy dude I think
you would like.  I can't remember his name, but he was home-schooled
by his father, an artist, who took him all over the world.  He is now
a computer programmer, collaborates with 100s of people on various
research projects, and likes to play with pieces of glass in his
office.  He made a statement that it's much easier to learn things
when one is a child, and he was fortunate to have been able to do
so...

János Bolyai was home-schooled until he was nine.

Not a name most people know but he played an interesting part in the
history of maths.

 BTW, what does this guy do with the pieces of glass?

I think he plays with them or makes dodecahedrons or something... I
wish I could remember his name, seems like your type of guy.
