Geode, here are some facts, which I note you studiously ignored. In fact, it seems you totally ignored that link. I guess there were too many words and reasoning and ugly complicated maths stuff. lagriffedulion.f2s.com

<There are plenty of opinions but no facts. You know, if the data sucks then the conclusions made from the data suck as well. >

There were facts. How did they "suck"?

Then, how did the reasoning "suck"? What's wrong with the theory? How did it "suck"?

Simply blurting out "Baloney" "Bunkum" etc is very unconvincing and completely devoid of reasoning, logic, facts, data and thought, and is no answer other than to say you have nothing better.

Meanwhile, you've completely misunderstood the argument with this idea <If you can figure out where and how in the brain this ability is, prove that it's linked to gender and cannot be significantly affected by the environment. Then you'll have something to the argument.>

I was specifically saying that ability in mathematics at the topmost levels is very specifically linked to environment, namely, age of puberty and educational processes associated with individual development.

I hereby declare victory and will drop it as we are going nowhere.
