No. That would be the "median" not the "average". Sorry, had to get that
out :-)

Would it be reasonable to say that "smarts" has a bell shaped curve, so
the median and average are the same? Or if I'm wrong about that, that
the average is higher than the median, giving us the potential for more
than half of us to be deluded? Either way, I'm sure I'd lose an argument
with John C. about statistics.
