    an article discussed whether males were more intelligent than females. I think an attempt was made to show photos of people that are renown for their superior intelligence, but, after looking at the photos, i wonder about the intelligence of the editor of this article.

    Here is a few of the males shown on the cover: (First) Bill Clinton, Jon Stewart, Dalai Lama, James Carville (inside)
    ...but they also have Stephen Hawking, Warren Buffet, Einstein (inside)

    Einstein, Clinton, Hawking, Stewart, Buffet, Carville...hmmm.....

    There's no sign of Ronald Regan, Rush Limbaugh, Ayn Rand...

    ...i can imagine the riotous laughter that exploded when someone at the article meeting quipped, "How about George W. Bush!"

    I don't think I can argue with any of those names, though I can't see how Jon Stewart could fit in there. It is rather interesting to me, however, that they chose people from the left-side of the spectrum. I think its a shame that they would make something like that so partisan. Whether people like it or not, there are great minds on the right. Rush Limbaugh, though? I can't put him in the same league as Ronald Reagan.
