Oh my.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.

Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.

You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.

Does it matter that I have 4 windows open and I'm listening to Portland Progressive radio? Usually it says 6 something.

To get a more accurate test:

1) Only have one computer running that can connect to the internet.
2) On the one computer you do the test on, make sure nothing else is accessing the internet (so turn off MSN, Email clients, close all browser windows apart from the test one, etc).
3) Connect the test computer directly to the router / modem (via an ethernet cable). Wireless is slower (although not significantly) than wired.

I have two computers connected to the same internet. One by an Ethernet cable, one by magick.
