The legend of Ganch is widely known where he's the forum math genius.Not that he would brag about it or reveal anything that would get him in hot water but has he pulled off any capers legal or illegal?I get this picture in my mind where he could be in Oceans 11 or part of the MIT card counting team.I ran into a guy in downtown Vegas like Ganch last year who looked like Radar on MASH and was a Viet Nam vet that had a photo memory and hauled a journal along with him to the sportsbooks.Anyone ever run into a guy by this description in Vegas?He hung out with a guy named George who was born in Iraq and left there at 10 and has been here for 40 years.They would have made for a good sitcom like the odd couple.There is quite a band of regulars with irregular personalities that all know each other and hang out downtown Vegas.

If he was really that smart, would he allow himself to get into a situation where it's either resign from his post at Wall St. or jail?
That is according to jj anyway.Comment -
Sure, do a search for "Billy Cottrell", a leading string theorist currently doing hard time in the state pen for eco-terrorism, he blew up some SUVs. They don't even give him pens and paper so he can write down his physics, they just throw him in the shoe.
That dude is almost as smart as Ganch, and got himself into way more trouble.Comment -
