    You're far more likely to die in a car crash then in a terrorist attack

    What bugged me the most in Heroes was a minor character called Hana Gitelman.

    http://heroeswiki.com/Hana_Gitelman

    Her special power was that she "... had the ability to intercept, generate and interpret electronic wireless transmissions".

    I don't mind accepting that she can intercept satelite transmissions, that she can pair with her Bluetooth ear phones, etc.

    I just can't, for the life of me, figure out how she implements checksums in the communications she generates!
    Can she perform CRCs in her head? :)

    Wow. The more I read about Leonardo de Vinci, the more he reminds me of Sylar from Heroes (the 'knowing how things work' part, not the monster part). Especially from this segment of the article you linked:

    The Italian artist had no formal medical training and brought together a number of disciplines, including mechanics and engineering, when he looked at a problem.

    If that doesn't sound like intuitive aptitude, I don't know what does.

    ...and to think... for decades people were worried about martians invading when in reality the martians should have been worried about *US* invading them!
