except this one is real.

surprisingly silly implication re the efficacy of iq in predicting the value of individuals to society.

also, iq simply isn't accepted in the role assigned to it. iq measures iq. it is spotty as a measure of a brain's ability to think well. michael jordan's brain thinks well about basketball. einstein's brain thinks well about light and relativity. rembrandt's brain thinks well about painting. the brain is an organ of many parts and the value in each of the parts is not evenly distributed. doh.
