I know I didn't say this, but I was referring to low-normal white IQ's. Where there shouldn't be any difference in the cranium size or shape. 

Here is what I am getting at. The human brain is fascinating. If someone has a normal brain, normal education and upbringing but consistently tests out showing a low normal IQ, then it seems to me there could be a lot of unlocked potential in such a brain. An untapped reservoir of some kind of intellectual capacity which is not being utilized. What exactly is that capacity, what can it do; how can it be tapped into?

Recently, I have observed a certain level of complex intellectual capacity in an individual who would likely test out at 50 or below on an IQ test. Retarded, Intellectually Disabled, whatever you want to call this person, and there are physical deformities in this individual as well.  Yet, this person who supposedly has the mental capacity of a 5 year old, exhibits the ability to engage in relatively complex adult-oriented humor; evaluating the audience, a set up and delivering a tailored punch line so to speak. There's more mental cognition going on there than could ever be tested. It can't be tested, yet I can see it.

I tend to believe brilliant people don't know they're brilliant, IE, not in their personality...

I stopped counting after 5,870 times after seeing Veghead drown in his own ignorance. His ego far exceeds his IQ. 

Same with his retarded son. He now goes by HarperLee. Not only is he usually wrong about everything, but he is going through an identity crisis. How hard is it to keep the same name?

My Dad was "genius level" and one of his greatest assets was having a photographic memory.
His Dad had the same talent too.
Not so much with me, however....... Image

OTOH...I played chess against a kid I was stationed with in the Army who was a Hill Billy  from WV who  had a 100 IQ MOS [PRC 77 radio repairman]...and he could play with his back to the table while smoking hash and win against ALL COMERS  in 10 moves or less.   
That was a very humbling thing that I rarely subjected myself to ...to lose in chess to Jed Clampett's Son  Image

What are the basics of chess? Limited compounding results statistically averaged out in half life principles plying one side against the other.
Chess board is proportionately square with 64 squares 32 in two contrasting colors.
32 pieces with 16 of each contrasting colors.
16 pawns 8 on each side
Within the 16 remaining there are 4 rooks, 4 knights, 4 bishops 2 queens, 2 kings chain of command over the 16 pawns.

Each piece can only move in a specific way and spaces at ne time, each time it moves. Queen has run of the board, but in straight lines and cannot move through or around its own side's pieces.
Pawns can only move one square straight across the board except to take an opponents piece diagonally. King can only move one space but can move one space in any direction except placing itself in check.

Rules to the game of chess aren't natural rules to adapting as an ancestral position being alive daily here with genetics being the only source of ancestral positions alive daily so far.

To anyone reading this thread, There is a separation of time between each reproduction native to this atmosphere occupying space as a specific ancestral position conceived to decomposed by decomposition after death or death by digestion as part of the "food chain predator and prey balances 24/7".

In life there is a sequence of arrival to departures of anything living in a specific universal geographical location of a specific galaxy, solar system, planetary location, locating the reproduction within a specific ancestral lineage, generation gap, sibling, cousin, non related chromosomes to the rest of the population living spontaneously here simultaneously evolving as directly alive each rotation living cradle to grave/ womb to tomb.

Point of this post is the separation between "know it all's" and a person "Understanding all there is to know" about adapting uniquely alive each rotation living as an ever changing form that cannot create or destroy the energy sustains by a perpetual balancing moment here now each reproduction gets one opportunity to live forward each rotation living since conceived in series parallel time today from conception to decomposed after dead.

Evolving is a process, evolution theory is a game where people pretend to be intellectually more than all they time they get adapting forward now.

Pride before the downfall of their socially driven reality all generation gaps alive pretend life exceeds their position adapting forward so far.

Absolute power of suggesting now isn't eternity corrupted all 5 generation gaps living the dream of life exceeds adapting in space daily here as equally timed apart since conceived to replace their 30 previous chromosomes donors pf 4 prior generation gaps lived until died for what ever reason their death took place adapting to being alive as eternally separated in plain sight regardless midnight to noon to tomorrow or today noon to midnight same rotation so far.

Each ancestor ever lived came in sequence of proportionately here current rotation evolving in stages fertilized cell, zygote, embryo, fetus, premature infant, birth, infant, toddler, adolescent, puberty, adult with the opportunity to change ancestral position as great great grandchild to 1 of 2 parents, 1 of 4 grandparents, 1 of 8 great grandparents, 1 of 16 pawns each of their great great grandchildren are to humanity as historically designed in rule of law regardless the society here today.

this is why I don't play chess. It is weaponized psychological warfare passed down each generation gap trained to believe genetics cannot be the single source of eternal separation of living relatives here today.

This is what I was talking about! Something is efficiently "clicking" in his brain, but just not something that would show up on standard testing.  I believe you can use chess as an alternative basis for quantifying a portion of someone's intelligence.

As for me, I only get better at chess if I am playing a lot.  If I stop playing for a little while, I quickly revert to a lower baseline level of play. These people who are naturally good chess players - they see the game unfold in their mind. With lots of practice I feel I cam almost see it, but I never really get there - not like Jed Clampett's son.

A lot of games like chess and bridge that most adults used to spend time doing at "get togethers" have been replaced with people who gather together to sit in the same room, watching TV and staring at their cell phones........ :)

90% of your posts are pointless diversions.  My challenge gets to the heart of the matter.  One design for combat.  One design for civilians.

That is why there are at Lear two lists.  Keep running

Sounds like an idiot savant. I have an older brother who is an idiot savant. He's bad at just about everything.

He's a genius at one thing - and one thing only. But we haven't figured out what that is, yet. 

Late bloomer, is my diagnosis.
