And hence forwarded to be funny.  But what is the average IQ of Idaho?
Dare we judge by the evidence presented on this list?

	Proof that Democrats really are smarter than Republicans?  From
the latest issue of The Economist, May 15th - 21st, 2004.  The original
source of the data is "IQ and the Wealth of Nations," by Richard Lynn
and Tatu Vanhanen.=20

	=20

	State -- Average IQ -- 2000 Presidential vote

	=20

	Connecticut -- 113 -- Gore

	Massachusetts -- 111 -- Gore

	New Jersey -- 111 -- Gore

	New York -- 109 -- Gore

	Rhode Island -- 107 -- Gore

	Hawaii -- 106 -- Gore

	Maryland -- 105 -- Gore

	New Hampshire -- 105 -- Bush

	Illinois -- 104 -- Gore

	Delaware -- 103 -- Gore

	Alabama -- 90 -- Bush

	Louisiana -- 90 -- Bush

	Montana -- 90 -- Bush

	Oklahoma -- 90 -- Bush

	South Dakota -- 90 -- Bush

	South Carolina -- 89 -- Bush

	Wyoming -- 89 -- Bush

	Idaho -- 87 -- Bush

	Utah -- 87 -- Bush

	Mississippi -- 85 -- Bush=20

	Now, a couple of things about this really bother me  The first
is that my home state, North Carolina, isn't listed, but I know it went
for Bush in a big way.  The second is that Idaho is ranked 48th, just
above Utah and Mississippi.  We've been bested by Alabama.  Alabama!
Oh, the company we keep.

	Winning friends and influencing people,

	PS: I am forwarding this for your general amusement and not to
be incendiary or anything.  (Joan Carl, what a lie.  I hope no one calls
me on it.)
