Xmas Science Shocker! Startling New Study: IQ, Brain Size Correlated!

Didn’t see this one coming. Looks like I’ll have to develop a new Weltansicht.

Canadian researchers examined the brains of 100 people who were given extensive IQ tests before they died and found a correlation between cerebral volume and intelligence.

Story.

It’ll just be denied, Soren.  You can see that already in the comments underneath the article.  These are non-scientist lay-people in that reader’s comments thread but you’re going to see scientists deny it just as stupidly.  The ones who see what’s going on have to forge ahead on their own.

Yep Fred, it will only be denied by the existentialist Archetype for we are all equal is the mantra’ and we are supposedly only able to be as dumb as each other, hmmmmm.
Although Two kids I know (mine) asked me what I would like for Christmas; I would answer I would like a machine that can reach speeds from 0 100 in 4 seconds, very few cars can achieve this, and well out side our budgetary restraints:
To My surprise on Christmas day, they remarked that they would grant me my special request, in a much smaller box, yep , it was a set of scales; and with such pride they state it goes from 0 to 100 in 1 second : How’s that for Intellectual initiative and adds to the things that make you go: Hmmmmmmm. File.
