Autistic Prodigy Rivals Albert Einstein

Jake Barnett is a twelve year old boy with Aspergers Syndrome who has an IQ of 170.  This means that he is smarter than Albert Einstein.  In fact, Jake is developing his own theory of relativity and mingling with some of the hardest math problems.  Success in his endeavors would give Jake a shot at the noble prize.  He is so good at what he does that he has helped college students with their math problems.  The narrow focus that is associated with high functioning autism and Aspergers Syndrome has surely helped Jake to reach a point in his life that he might not have otherwise reached.
