Just told I was a genius by a couple with outstanding academic credentials. Would you like to be a genius? Here's how:
Use electronic devices, such as computers, smartphones and tablets like iPads
Encourage others your age to use such devices, too
Be receptive when others have trouble using them or learn of something they would like to do with them that they can't yet
Tell them who might be able to help them
Here's what happened:
Field: I'd like to ask you a question. What can I do to get my iPad to change orientation? Now, it stays in portrait mode even when I hold it sideways.
Me: Do you have the position locked?
Field: No
Me: Have you tried the Lockhorn's percussive maintenance? Try smacking the thing with the edge of your hand.
Field: Doing that is not helping.
Me: Well, here are some places in town where you can get it repaired if it has lost function.
Field: Wait! Bill, what if I tried locking the position and then unlocking it? Do you think that might fix the problem?
Me: I don't know. Try it.
Field: Ok, here goes. Hey! It worked! Bill, you're a genius!
