Thread Name: BS: Email Hurts IQ
Subject: RE: BS: Email Hurts IQ
Since IQ theoretically is a "quotient" obtained by dividing one's own problem solving abilities by the "average abilities of the general population" the rapid decline of thinking capacity in the general population must be driving my IQ to astronomical levels, even if my own abilities never change.
As long as I can get dumb less quickly than the rest of you, I'll still have a high IQ? I'm pretty sure that effect outstrips the one cited, so I guess its safe to check my email once a week.
