I wasn't talking about illiterates, intelligence is not knowledge of things.
It is problem solving. The self educated often exhibit a heap of problem
solving. They need fewer mentors or teachers to figure things out. Of
course, their conclusions don't look like the nice fenced pastures that the
general culture graze in therefore disclaimed as unintelligent. I am not
saying that institutional education is bad it is just not the standard for
intelligence. No working hands needed, nor dismissed. The unconventionally
educated often earn their bread by other means then those perceived as
success by the domesticated.

Daniel -- I've met people whom you couldn't force to read at gunpoint, but
that could do
almost anything they could imagine with their hands. There are different
kinds of
intelligence.
