One more thought, as I've completed the book, "Outliers", by Malcolm Gladwell. I'm sure as I share this, a lot of missing pieces over the years are going to start falling in to place for many of you.
I know there is a lot of jealousy by many over the higher IQ's that some of us share over the normal person. Well, Malcolm makes a strong case for the idea that there is actually a threshold that, when crossed, gives you as much of a chance for intellectual success, as anybody on earth.
So, if you have an IQ over 140, you've passed the threshold. You are really just as capable as somebody with an IQ of 200! Tell me you don't feel better now. I know I did when I read that.
I guess just to make sure, I'll retest to actually see where I fall..... I mean, really, that whole thing about not drinking Kool-Aid because I couldn't figure out how to put two quarts of water in those little envelopes was a joke.... I mean it.....
