Sounds like fun, I'd love to try it some day.

I mean, yeah it's going to be interesting, but how much are you really going to learn, just talking to yourself like a crazy person?

Oh I'm a pretty smart guy, but I don't crack those numbers. Thats pretty damn impressive as far as raw learning ability goes.

Not only are you a genius, but modest too? Be still my racing heart.

The flipside of that coin is to talk w/ my uncle. That fucker thinks he knows everything but you feel yourself grow more retarded the longer you're in his presence. He's basically Cliff from Cheers except he isn't funny and got turned down for a job at the post office on multiple occasions.

I find it similar when you talk to someone with 10+ years experience with a very specialized skill or area. Like I really know computers and IT in general, but I can talk to a hardcore cobol programmer for example and my mind is swimming. But I can appreciate they know what they are talking about.

Same for other things like an expert wood worker, mason, sports people etc...

187 IQ not required IMO.

The biggest difficulty is comprehension of many words with over five syllables each used in very long sentences. Other than that, no problem.
