I am always amused when I see these posts on intelligence as if it is an singular thing. There are many types of intelligence from scientific (i.e. medicine, mathematics) to creative (i.e. literature, music, sculpting) to social (i.e. business, politics) and athletic (i.e. sports, recreation). No one person can be good at all of these types of intelligence, but collectively we can.
Or put another way. We all saw Watson win at chess and Jeopardy, I don’t think would do so well playing Texas hold’em against some tournament champions.
I remember not to long ago when the Tea Party made the US House of Representatives read aloud most of the Constitution (not the three filth's part or Prohibition). I guess you weren't paying attention or don't believe in it.
Any Bigfoot sightings anyone?
