I once took an IQ test after not sleeping for 48 hours..... it's a long story how that came to be, but I won't go into it. The test showed I was mildly retarded.
Ha . . . this story makes me feel a bit better. I recently played with some cognitive tests while very tired (long story related to work) and ended up scoring . . . less than I might have hoped! Now I know what to blame it on, although I'm secretly afraid that long term sleep deprivation and age contribute to the test result being accurate
