2nd Einstein

Aside from Nikola Tesla?

I don't exactly believe that we will have a 'more advanced world'. Einstein contributed very little that actually directly impacted the everyday person - if one thinks of the lightbulb, automobile, radio, etc. When Time Magazine was going to publish its end of the 20th century with a picture of the most influencial person on it Einstein won by default since there was no way the editors were going to put Adolf Hitler's picture on the cover. Hitler had a greater, and far more longer lasting, influence on the everyday person in the 20th century than Einstein.

Besides Einstein is only relevent until someone else's 'big theory' comes along - remember Aristotle and Newton?
 
It's harder for their to be single genius's who revolutionize technology nowadays, just because there's so much technology that no one can understand it all.
