That is not what I wrote. *I stated that it took a lot less time to

still true). *I drew the conclusion that it is easier to get a
doctorate in a technical field. *I did not write anyting abot IQ.
Don't make me responsible for anything you write or don't. *Don't

My previous post states what I find the facts you state prove ... but,
let me make it clearer. *There are far more damn idiots in the arts,

Is there a 'possibility' that an IQ Test is good at
measuring those Brain Functions and Abilities
that make a good Engineers and does not do
as good a job measuring what it takes to be a
good artist or musician . . .- Hide quoted text -

Sounds plausible. *Having said that, there are plenty of studues that
have provided good statistical correlation between musical skill and
high levels of math and science comprehension and ability. *Does this
mean that the two skillsets are intercheangeable? *Almost certainly
not - but it suggests that the brain recognizes the similarities and
overlaps.
Alberts Einstein and Schweitzer were both fine musicians. *Schweitzer
was a genius on the organ.
* *Pretty fair pedal-pianist, as well. His interpretations of Bach
on piano are believed to be significant inspiration for some of
Casals interpretations of Bach's Concerti.
OK - I am not surprised. His Bach organ recordings on EMI, as old as
they are, are gorgeous.
