Feynmann's reputation, mathematics, and insights into the workings of 
the world are virtually unmatched even by other top scientists.  You, on 
the other hand, probably have an IQ 50 points lower than his, are 
mathematically incompetent, and physics-challenged.  You can't begin to 
comprehend general relativity or the details of quantum mechanics. 
Sure, I believe you.
