Didn’t he got nuts, run away, and work at menial jobs for the rest of his short life? I read maybe half of The Prodigy but the book was pretty boring.

While I could pretty much agree with you because what you say is pretty true, I would’nt find it surprising that there is an inverse correlation once you start to get up into supergenius…look at einstein, he supposedly had an child out of wedlock and sent it off for abortion, he never spoke until he was 3 either (not important but interesting) then there is the ridculously overlooked William James Sidis, if you have’nt heard of him do a search or get the book the prodigy, he was said to be the smartest human to live (in this century also) with an IQ of 250-300, in fact some people who study evolution believe he is actually a revelation of the next frontier of humans “neo-sapiens”. At his peak of study languages for a hobby he spoke 40 languages fluently and was said to be able to learn a language in a day…He also led a mishapen life, being arrested at 15 and protesting government in favour of socialism and being enrolled at harvard at this age, he also gave his first anatomical seminar at harvard at the age of 12, and completed highschool at 8 years old in 6 weeks…this is all serious shit, go check it out…and currently the smartest living person is Marilyn Vos Savant, with an IQ of 218 and some amazing writings…
That’s just plain stupid. Iq is only a measure of one of many intelligences. Real intelligence is peoples ability to adapt to their environment, and to rise to challenges; thats not having your head stuck in a book all day. You know apparently people with low IQ’s and high IQ’s are those most affected by depression? I’m glad I got 125. P.S I bet all those people saying 240 are bullshiting. [/quote]
Why do people connect a high IQ with having your head stuck in a book? When you find someone who is able to rise to challenges and adapt quickly to new situations and ideas, they do have a high IQ and will test high, regardless of how much time they spend in books. BTW, 125 is very high, top 5% of all people. No one has ever scored 240 on an IQ test.

And hence, ladies and gentlemen, the demonstration of what has previously been termed “real world inteligence,” is hereby concluded in a succint yet delightfully vulgar fashion.
