The Good Doctor, malgré lui

I wonder if AS noticed that, in addition to his recklessly popularizing stylized notions of the gene-race nexus, that his ... er, train, has noticed to.

Posting over at Stormfront, we have a notice of the same article, introduced with the absolutely self-restrained:

"Panic at the JYT", which I assume means "Jew York Times".

I'd post a link, but this is easy enough to find on the Stormfront boards, if you want, so I'm not going to bother.




Jim Fallows, writing in The Atlantic, 1989:

There is, then, nothing in nature that dictates that intelligence be distributed along a bell curve, with the normal proportions of geniuses and morons and people with average IQs. So how can we be sure that intelligence really is distributed that way? In fact, we can't; no one is sure just how it is distributed. The bell curve was invented for analytic convenience, not because anyone believed that it resembled the real, underlying pattern of intelligence.
