      What is intelligence, anyway? When I was in the Army, I received a kind of aptitude test
that all soldiers took and, against a normal of 100, scored 160. No one at the base had ever seen a
figure like that, and for two hours they made a big fuss over me.
      All my life I’ve been registering scores like that, so that I have the complacent feeling that
I’m highly intelligent, and I expect other people to think so, too. Actually, though, don’t such
scores simply mean that I am very good at answering the type of academic questions that are
considered worthy of answers by the people who make up the intelligence tests—people with
intellectual bents similar to mine?
      For instance, I had an auto repairman once, who, on these intelligence tests, could not
possibly have scored more than 80, by my estimate. I always took it for granted that I was far
more intelligent than he was. Yet, when anything went wrong with my car, I hastened to him with
it, watched him anxiously as he explored its vitals, and listened to his pronouncements as though
they were divine oracles—and he always fixed my car.
