Ok, I was studying biology on Wikipedia, when I read the following:
"Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a human genetic disorder, in which the body lacks phenylalanine hydroxylase, the enzyme necessary to metabolize phenylalanine to tyrosine. Left untreated, the disorder can cause brain damage and progressive mental retardation as a result of the accumulation of phenylalanine and its breakdown products. The incidence of occurrence of PKU is about 1 in 15,000 births, but the incidence varies widely in different human populations from 1 in 4,500 births among the Irish to fewer than one in 100,000 births among the population of Finland." -Wikipedia
This description made me burst out laughing, 'cause I thought, "does that mean irish people are born retarded?" xp And if you're irish, and you're reading this, no offense... sweatdrop I just thought it was funny how they described it... wink

I guess my family's a lucky branch.
Our IQ range over the last 100 years has been everywhere between 130 and 180... although there is a good chance me or my youngest brother could set a new high.
