Mr Bill Gates. Thanks to him, we have modern desk tops Microsoft computers. Many now have them in their homes, and they are now as common-place as Biro pens.

Depends on the person.  I haven't heard any scientific proves which is smarter than the other.

A smart person is someone who knows what they want. They are articulate, witty, and fast on their mental 'feet'. They create goals and focus on them to achieve. They put everything in prespective, the more you leave out the higher the risk. A person who is smart has a general knowledge of mankinds history. It is pertinent to brush up on our past because we can learn many things and even use them to make our own lifes easier.\n\nYou do not have to be great in math or be able to solve a rubix cube in under 5 minutes to be smart. A smart person knows they are smart.\n\nI think the most important factor when considering someones intelligence is their ability to make good decisions. This is prehaps the most valuable skill one can learn. We make decisions in everything we do, and while we practice making decision so much, it is still one of the hardest things to do. To make a right decision you must consider every possible outcome and decide what is the best plan of action before acting on it. Learn to do this well and you will have a distinct advantage over others in life.\n\n'Smartness' is derived from learning, a big factor in being smart is to learn from your mistakes. I'm talking about making a conscious effort to analyze your actions and decide what you did wrong(also what you did right) AND what you could have done differntly. Personally, I do this at night when I'm laying down for bed, I think about my day and analyze it.(this also helps me sleep!)\n\nThe most limiting factor in intelligence is emotions. Which brings up emotional intelligence...but I wont get into that, this post is already too long!

How do you think they retain their smartness?

it can not definitely be something other than human since only us have the capacity of thinking.this will be a classical answer but einstein was a good one. I do not want to say that he is the most intelligent one because he was a clever one but he also had the opportunity to show himself. there are lots of people who even do not have the opportunity to read, so in this case Einstein is best example to someone intelligent and able to show it to the rest of the world.

If you are referring to Carl SAGAN, I think he was an intelligent person with very little useful "smartness."

Simple answer:\n\nA smart person is someone with head knowledge about topics, events, facts, and figures. But they could be dumb as a skunk when it comes to using that knowledge in the most simplest obvious ways. \n\nA wise person, simply put, is someone who has learned from experience and has had many mistakes and learned from them. \n\nIn a very real sense a wise person could be smarter than a smart person.\n\nThink of it like this. A smart person would be book smart. Whereas a wise person has common sense. \n\nhope this helps.

It's WHO is the best person.  And, if I am reading your question correctly (which is difficult to determine), yes.

That's a very good question. I'd say Stephen, because he'd think up some clever way to make his wheelchair defy gravity or some shit like that.

Hmmm!  tie between Charles Darwin and Albert Einstein.  Simply mention their names...
