Thank you for shouting, in my old age this is really a help.
I didn't disregard IQ tests, Sir/Madam.
I reacted to somebody who bragged with his IQ.
Ok then, now for the logician:
If (
intelligence is the ability to learn
and
admitting one's lack of knowledge
is a prerequisite to learn
and
bragging is a sure sign of having not learned,
how one's own mind is functioning,
)
then
bragging about one's IQ is a sure sign
of lack of intelligence.
It's a pleasure to discuss with you<grin>
