    I know a few PhD's and they are definately not all smart, one of them has 3.

    Obviously I am smarter than a person with 3 PhD's. Apparently they were too dimwitted to see the redundancy of having 3 degrees. Duh. Besides, doctorates in Basket Weaving, Agricultural Sciences and Psychology don't count as PhD's. So far, this thread confirms my initial hypothesis.

    No, it does not. What it means is that you paid a bunch of cash to a school that issued a document specifying that you did the work they required. It does NOT prove you are intelligent at all.

      I'm trying to establish demonstrate the fact that I am the smartest person on this message board. So, how many of you other regulars have PhD's, or is it just me (thereby making me the smartest here)? :-D

          Oh, I fully expect massive blow-back from this post. God forbid I offer some different (and humourous) alternative to the usual crap!

            :laugh: It's funny how some people can't distinguish tongue-in-cheek threads. Relax, I'm just trying to change the tune here. I'm not looking for arguments. :rolleyes:

                  I swear I hear your voice as Vizzini (A Princess Bride) Vizzini: I can't compete with you physically, and you're no match for my brains. Westley: You're that smart? Vizzini: Let me put it this way. Have you ever heard of Plato, Aristotle, Socrates? Westley: Yes. Vizzini: Morons. :laugh:

                      Could be, could be! The year seem to match the Viking tour! Do you know from which nordic country tribe/geographic area Ivarsson came from?

                        Wikipedia says: Eystein Glumra also called Eystein Ivarsson (born 788 in Maer), Nord Trondelag, Norway) was a petty king of Norway, the son of Ivar Halfdan and the father of Ragnvald Eysteinsson. He was married to Ascrida Rognvaldsdatter c. 819. Almost all of my family are Cornish but one person married the many-times grand-daughter of a bastard son on one of the Norman kings of England, which gave the Nordic link.
