It's not so much the brains, but it's what you do with them. I know a lot of smart people who do nothing but talk about philosophical issues and accomplish nothing.

I also knew several highly intelligent people in High School who got mixed up in drugs and fried their brains. What a waste!

I know a more than a few supposedly smart people who have so little common sense that inthe real world they a functionally impaired.

Then I know a few really smart people who also have common sense who just don’t give a crap and excel in their field but don’t look to change the world because the environemnt these days seems to reward sucess so they bow out because the deck is stacked against success.

I would rather have someone who has a high “common sense IQ” than a idiot savant who has a high “book learning IQ” who couldn’t pour piss out of boot until they read a several thousand page book on liquid dynamics and gravity.

So true. Intelligence isn't wisdom. High IQ allows many people to do really dumb things very cleverly.

Augustus McCrae would beg to differ with you, sir.
