James Collins is smart, but don't call him a genius. As a 2003 MacArthur "genius grant" fellow, Collins has endured much good-natured ribbing. The morning the awards were announced, he was heckled by his neighbor, who, Collins says, "leaned out his window, still in his pajamas, and yelled, 'Hey, Jimmy Neutron! I didn't know I was living next to a genius!'"
