This is my point!

We are all basically average, but to complicate it a bit, we all have two very distinct brains. Left brain and right brain.

Some have kick ass left brains and not much on the right, and some have kick as right brains and not much on the left.

The left brain is the power brain, "sequential logic" per Robert Ornstein, the right brain is the "simulataneous juxtapositioning of things". Same guy.

BUT, and this is what is important, the average person who most of us are, can ad 60 IQ points, more or less, and go from concrete thinkers to abstract thinkers but vigorous study.

We have learned how exercise can build an average body, so learning does the same for the brain.

Most of us can be a whole lot smarter than we are!! The Asians know this, we don't!

Trump is the poster boy for dumb asses.

AND, so koan can you explain how changes in the DNA between one person and another makes it possible for one person to be smart and another not so smart?

Your previous response is wildly irrelevant!
