First I am not in competition here -- it is my prayer that I might compliment those whose aspirations match mine -- and FRee-Republic's.
And second, if I was, I'd put my 188 IQ on the block -- and see if you came up even to my knees -- any day you wish to risk your further humiliation.
What version of the IQ test did you take?
At my college, I took an IQ test, but the cap or highest score one could get was 145.
I do know earlier tests allowed for higher scores.
Former COS John Sununu used to brag about his score (180).
You might have an IQ of 188, but sadly IQ tests dont involve history.
My fear is that its over-confident people like you who will bring about the downfall of USA, beware its loosing friends fast.
In 19th century, compared to the rest of the world Great Britain was much more powerfull than US is right now. And it could'nt sustain it. US has had only a decade and a half of sole world domination and already there are signs of declining power with respect to the rest of the world.
It has lost major allies, unless you count Poland as one.
Real strength of US doesnt lie in the weapons it produces, it is just a fringe benefit of being able to attract the smartest. Its the freedom and opportunity which is a magnet. Its the declaration of rights (and thats why i say US is declining).
And people like you are doing no favour to US in attracting smart people.BTW people with an IQ of 188 don't need to use hyphenated words at the rate at which you use them.
