Its got to be the hawkman... Anyone whos in the know... knows that MC hawking can kick it to any intelligent peeps...

My pick is either....DaVinci or Bejamin Franklin
DaVinci becoz he has my respect and worship as an artist
and Franklin becoz he gave alot to humanity
Tough Choice

Well to truly honest for their time period and their skill, they were all intelligent in their field....

I'd say James Sidis here.

no one has mentioned Tim Berners-Lee inventor of the world wide web.

I don't think any human being is really intelligent.

Why??

or are you refering to the masses of idiots who claim to be "humans"

We do not know much, otherwise the world would have been a peaceful place, and we would have been able to bend the world like gods. However, the most intelligent people are those who know that they know nothing.

Albert Einstein for you then.

Albert Einstein
the only to things that are infinite are the universe and human stupidity... and i am not sure about the universe

Definitely not Einstein, no intelligent man would have hair like that! Only kidding. Einstein was really a great man...

The world isn't kept back by those who are smart, but by those who are dumb... We outlawed the very sciences we need to find cures, we start wars for profit and we would rather steal then study to advance in life... No its not the majority who hold us back, but the minority...

Look at table II.

What a weird table! Why is Fischer there but not Karpov or Kasparov? (Or Capablanca, for that mater)

We have some seriously clever dudes and dudettes at work.

Whenever I'm introduced to one I appear to become a jibbering idiot and sound more Brummy than at any other time. 😮

I always find the estimated IQs odd.

It seems to slightly defeat the point of a controlled test if people will estimate it generally.

Why no Feynman, Bohr etc damn those guys were bright -
Why no Srinivasa Ramanujan or Gauss
No Galileo or Copernicus
No Faraday or Edison
No Socrates or Plato
No Shakespeare etc you can't really answer this one.
