Which is why I find the whole argument against *the possibility* such
an affront to logic: If there weren't any differences, there wouldn't
be races!

The fact is, we do define races and we *may* be able to find
intelligence differences between them.  And that's a COMPLETELY
different point than how we might define both intelligence AND the
differences.

I still think intelligence is, intuitively, capacity to learn and
speed of learning.  For example, take a kid who starts talking at 6
months old and can extrapolate multiplication tables at 1: wouldn't we
define that child as exceptional? One what basis?  The speed of
learning.

Of course we differentiate intelligence types such as common sense,
emotional IQ, etc.  But our economy rewards people who are
academically talented and thus that's the general basis for saying
someone is intelligent.
