I like to think that along with the "intelligent" number if there is no common sense and no wisdom, you really aren't anything special. Like you said, there's a popular definition of intelligence which is grossly overrated. Then there's true intelligence, which doesn't necessarily come in a IQ number.

They say "Age ain't nothing but a number." Or, as I like to put it, it's not the years, it's the mileage that matters.

I think the same thing applies to any measurement of intelligence. It's not the number that matters, but the usage.

And god knows I've met some hyper-intelligent dullards.
