I thought IQ was related to the culture one grows up in, not something
you're born with.
In other words, if you're white and raised in a middle/upper-class
environment your chance at doing well on an IQ test are orders of magnitude
greater than for other people.
I, of course, did very well on an IQ test when I was a teenager. Then I
discovered beer and, well, things have gone, um, a bit downhill since then.

Yes, people are "born" with IQ, not smarts.
I also believe you can alter your IQ slightly.
>From what I understand (which may be wrong) is IQ is simply how many gallon
tank you were blessed with.
It does not measure how much you filled this tank.
