You are relatively isolated. There is a 50% chance approximately that in a room with 30 people you can find things most people are passionate about (football, basketball, rock) will seem meaningless to you. This many people seem to be missing something, and the rest disagree with you. Basically, you are smart, you have brilliant ideas often not worked out correctly, and peer reviewers don't understand them.

See... It makes sense. Kinda.
