Interesting article printed in January addressing the red/blue IQ "thingy" (just for you, Dan smile )

HERE'S the link. I'll quote the final analysis, as I found that interesting. In a nut shell, it says that the States that are not mostly red or blue are the smartest.....anyway....here it is.......

Quote:
Result: average IQ for red states vs. blue states was essentially the same (red 99, blue 99.5). Conclusions: Are liberals smarter than conservatives? Some social scientists sure think so. Are blue states smarter than red states? Sadly for us cyanophiles, no.

But here's the most significant data point, I think: in the purple states — the ones that swung back and forth — the average IQ according to Una's spreadsheet was 100.9, appreciably above that for either the blue states or red states. In other words — and this has the shock of truth — the people in the purple states weren't rigidly liberal or conservative, but rather had enough on the ball to consider the choices before them and occasionally change their minds.

It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck.

In other news, water is wet.

Of course purple states are smarter. This should come as no surprise. I wouldn't brag too much about the 100.9 thing, though. That's still way short of Illy's made-up score of 148.

Good thing he lives in Washington.....raises what would otherwise be a pathetic showing. The deeper the blue the lower the score....damn fine deal having a few reds in the mix to purple it up some. smile

75 sounds about right for 150/2, eh divider. Jealousy is a waste of
time KK. The shallots I dug up and separated today are brainier than
you I suspect.
