    I found this link interesting, but how can they estimate without a test of some sort?  Grain of salt.http://www.totse.com/en/ego/literary_genius/iqhist.html

    In the past I have thought that people in previous ages must have been very intelligent.  I read through the school curriculum of some 18th Century figure (such as Emmerson or Thoreau) and I was amazed at how much they had to study back then.

    I read John Adams Bio and it talked about how young people in those days were going to Harvard at 15.
