No. Just 60 years of experience. I have known a lot of stupid people and a lot of very bright people and a lot more of people in the middle.

Drawing inferences from anecdotal evidence, especially personal anecdotal evidence, is generally a bad idea.

True statement. Trusting 'experts' is also generally a bad idea.

Take your pick. When it comes to understanding people, I'll stick with my gut feeling built on decades of hard earned experience.
