Look the sun comes up from the North and sets in the south. Much good using logic that will do to prove that that's true. |

I think you need to seriously consider your definition of the word fact. A 'fact' is something testable - not just your prediction (that's well before 'conclusion' in the scientific process), but something that has already been proven beyond a reasonable doubt.
Golly - this thread has certainly generated an opinion or two, after I thought the subject was a well beaten dead horse months ago. I'm again bleary eyed trying to keep up. Conclusion - there will never be consensus, so let's all get drunk. One thing first, though. DEFINITIONS. I'm sure back there on page 2, 3 or 6 someone attempted to define "intelligence". I guess we're going to pursue the western world's defination of it, which usually means we must "test" for it, calculate it, publish it & call it IQ. If IQ implies an inate ability to achieve in ALL measurable categories, then Rob's contentions could prove correct - sort of. Is "common sense" intelligence? Is lack of common sense stupidity? Is a dyslexic astrophysisist a moron? 30 years ago he would have been relegated to the school's dummy section, & taught janitorial skills 101. Point being we can't really nail this argument, because the criteria for measurement change with the psychobabble de joir (du joir?) Pardon my bad French - I'm a victim of '50s education. Ron (I may be ignorant, but I'm fat).

Yep, you guys are all right, my experience with mac and PC users hadn't really happened, it was a figment of my overly active imagination.
Can we lock this topic now? It needs to die. - Rob |
