Should IQ be a requirement?

You could hang out with them on a message board for a few weeks. It's not very efficient, I know. I'm pretty sure I could put the more active users in order from smartest down and be fairly accurate, though.

I'll agree with you there; talking to someone can give you a much better understanding of someone's brain than just a test. But you'll still never know how smart someone really is. I've been going to school with this kid for four years, and thought he was an alright person, but a little dim. Suddenly he's doing well enough to skip a grade; he'll be graduating high school this year as a junior.
