I know of one who tested out at 172, and there are tests for those kinds of minds.

The smartest one I have met was, to use her mother’s words, “well beyond freaky bright”, a term used for those above profoundly gifted.

At age 11 she had read some 2,000/2500 adult books, had a total recall memory of all contents thereof, and was comfortable thinking in terms of what she had read.

Example: “Islam has been attacking the Christian World since it began. The only thing that saved it was the science the Church fought against for so long. What I want to know is why we don’t use our nuclear advantage while we still have it?”

When I asked her if she could repeat that for the camera, she said “I can remember everything I have ever said.” Her mother verified that.

Yes, she had read quite a bit regarding such weapons and their effects.

She also had read Churchill on Islam.

Sigh - - - where can I trade my mind for one like that?
