#14,

Nah, took me 10 hours and 41 minutes to decide if I should mention it. It didn’t want to sound as if I was bragging. 165 was a one time thing. I usually score about 15 to 20 points less.

Plus, it took you 10 hours and 41 minutes to remember that little factoid.

…then again, what do I know? My top score on an IQ test as an adult was only 165. That makes me a moron next to someone who got 430.

I wouldn’t be surprised if his claims of having an IQ of 430 is based on scores he got as a child since no tests that I know of for adults will give you a score that high (the difference between 130 and 100 is greater than the difference between 130 and 160, which is greater than the difference between 160 and 180. So, why go as high as 430? The difference become statistically insignificant). As a matter of fact, children’s IQ tests have no set criteria based on age and therefore are nothing more than guesses (as opposed to adult tests, which are harder and scored in correlation with the results of the general adult population). An adult could easily score high scores on a child’s IQ test, which means an adult should not claim to have a high IQ based on the results of tests for children. That’s why Mensa has retracted it’s support of vos Savant’s claims of having a 228 IQ, which she got at 13 on a child’s IQ test.

#10: Don’t do it. This guy is on a roll.

I especially like the UN movement idea. Basing the UN in Panmunjom would make the idea of a UN sinecure a lot less attractive to the clowns currently inhabiting that building.

Those claims could be easily proven or refuted by filing a simple freedom of information act claim in the US for all the documents it has concerning the Russia missile base in question.

#7- Yes, it is. He also claims to have acquired a nuclear missile base in the USSR in 1975 during his time (1970-1979) as Park Chung-hee’s ’secret policy adviser’. His website has more information about his illustrious career.

Moving the UN HQ from NY to Panmunjeom

No doubt inspired by the fact that GS of the UN is a Korean. Although IMO, if one wants to fantasize about bringing the UN HQ to Korea one might be better off picking a more saner location such as Pusan or Jeju.
