As you finish up your summer vacation, take some time to read the two articles below.  The first is a bit scary (or maybe disturbing is the right word).  The second discusses a major motion picture released in April called, The Man Who Knew Infinity.  I have not seen the film yet but the article reminded me of the interesting biography of this math prodigy.  The link is from a blogger who writes a review of the film but also makes many astute conclusions about what makes mathematics important.
