That's remarkable. Though my own life is a validation of this post, I had always assumed I was an aberration.
In high school I had the highest score in the school on what was then the equivalent of the SAT. My IQ has been tested a couple of times at around 140, which almost got me sent to a school for "special" children, but my parents wouldn't allow it...
And I was an inveterate drunk shortly after high school.
When I say drunk, I mean drunk. I'm talking a case of beer a night, 6 or 7 nights out of the week. A functional drunk, but a drunk nonetheless.
I'm sure it has affected my health over the years, as well as other areas of my life, and I would do anything to go back and slap some sense into myself all those years ago.
