Happy Birthday, Leonardo da Vinci, Renaissance Man. Probably one of the brightest people ever. Inventor of many things hundreds of years ahead of their time.
Besides being a brilliant scientist and inventor he is probably the world's most celebrated painter with his works "Mona Lisa" and "The Last Supper" probably being the 2 most famous paintings ever. Read more about this remarkable man on the site above.
Like his younger contemporary by 23 years, Michelangelo, they were both left handed.
Is there any intellectual advantage in being right handed?
