I remember hearing somewhere that TV commercials attempt to be most appealing to those people with a 90 IQ, or rather less than the median average (100). Does anyone know if this is true? I have also read a quote that a mob's IQ is the number of people divided by the average IQ. I don't want to start up a IQ storm here, just thought I would pass on some useless trivia, my limited IQ pesters me with (Call me a Trivia Savant).
