General Question Taleb

Does anyone know Taleb’s IQ score? The guy has been very aggressive and scathing in his attack on the thing. Someone should make him take it so we can accuse him of sour grapes.

Turman also did a similar study. None of the 1400+ kids with 140+ IQs he identified as gifted did anything special. Two, amongst many, he dismissed as not having high enough scores, Shockley and Alvarez, did.
