Am i the only sub who finds this a little offensive?  i had no idea that submissiveness equates to ignorance.

No - don't be offended - this just means that he has a big head!  or as he might say - hydrocephaly

Well my guess is that the best way to find someone who is 'well read' by your standards would be to ask what people have read. For example is a large collection of Cosmo magazines good enough?

Also I tend to find that those who talk about how smart they are (IE the OP) tend to be the kind of people who will use complex words thatthey dont understand to sound smart, will read books just to sound bright and generally be completely dull to talk to (unless correcting people is your fetish)

I found these types to be a bit too narcissistic or otherwise lacking in other social skills. After a few conversations, I wanted to gag them, beat them, and have them write a thousand lines: " I will try to lighten up and be less boring."

Somewhere out there is someone you seek. Be a good listener, you'll find her.

Status: offline 		OP, let me get this straight, are you trying to tell us that you are unable to work out whether someone is intelligent or not from communicating with them?

Wow. I'm impressed. What's it like to have such an issue?

All I can do is offer the following advice - someone is intelligent if you can understand their intelligence, and someone is stupid when you can't.

Makes sense?

This reminds me of a curious fact: there is no way to weigh your brain while you are alive, true or false?

Status: offline 		It really is hard. I consider myself a geeky guy in a lot of ways, and I've always had trouble finding intelligent people to talk to. The only way I can think of is the obvious one: Look for subs who's profiles mention intellectual interests, like reading, science, politics, philosophy, etc. And in a non-internet encounter where a "profile" is lacking, just ask about her interests. If she says things that seem stupid, generic or devoid of thought, you've probably met a dumby.

Status: offline 		Heh, that reminds me of a scene I'll never forget.  I was in New York Public Library a few years ago and noticed a young couple looking something up on the computer.  There was only one available seat in front of the computer, so the man took it and the woman proceeded to kneel next to him naturally and unaffectedly.  Neither one seemed even seemed to think about what they were doing; they just acted instinctively.  The whole thing was quite beautiful to witness.

Status: offline 		How about MRI scanning where they can slice the brain into areas measure each area and assign a average brain unit density to it according to the slice thickness. Then they can integrate all the slices to sum up the total weight. Would that be anymore inaccurate than a set of scales with questionable calibration?
 
Sometimes the errors they average out like in the Simpsons rule.

Status: offline 		I think it would be less accurate than a direct measurement, even with imperfect scales, because brain density must vary not only from person to person but also from segment to segment.  One would be using approximate constants to calculate the overall weight.  But I'm curious now, and would love to hear an opinion from someone in neuroscience.
