Scott Douglas Jacobsen: Alfred Russell Wallace?
Rick Rosner: Yea — he and Alfred Russell Wallace announced it together, but took another year to put together his arguments in publishing The Origin of Species. These arguments were super powerful, and deep, because they’d had different background and a five-year voyage around the world and because after the voyage he took another 20 years to really nail down his arguments.
Newton, I don’t know what the time length for coming up with his views were, but he was young when he came up with calculus and universal gravitation, but you can still assume that anybody who comes up with pretty hardcore world changing theory has almost certainly not done it casually, but has that thinking as a result of many years of concerted, willed, thought about not the theory itself.
It is about the subject the theory impacts.
