Hmm. I wouldn't have bothered if you hadn't written this, but I looked and
found misspellings, missing pages (404 errors), lots of claims about what it
means to be a genius, and nothing to indicate that the creator of the site
had actually accomplished anything of value to anyone.
This is cute: "Remember we are Geniuses and review your application
thoroughly. Don't be afraid to take a chance if you are unsure. If you are
intelligent you will be fine and may surprise yourself. If you do however
score less than 140 please feel free to offer your thoughts, comments, and
talents. We will have a special page just for people we feel have the
abilities and thoughts of a genius but lack the IQ score."
It's nice to know that the lowly and humble will have a special place of
their own.
Mr. Ventura has written some interesting posts about his unusual
capabilities, e.g.
http://www.coolscifi.com/forums/showthread.php?t=192782
Having waded through samples of his work, I don't think I'll join his site
any time soon. Mr. Ventura may be a "genius" in the narrow sense of a
particular IQ range, and may have accomplished useful things in life, but he
has some interesting blind spots.
