I've mentioned that my perception is that Einstein's creativity set him apart and is a big piece of his accomplishments, K. smile

Einstein's IQ is much debated, but, according to this book:

A 10 year old girl wrote him a letter in the 40's asking him what his I.Q. was and he wrote back to her that it was 145.

I'd say that both my children are more intelligent than I am based on what I see them do compared to what I could do or how complexly I thought at their age.

It's amazing as an adult sometimes to have the conversations I have with them. Remembering what I was thinking about and doing at that age really puts in in context.
