Its popular to imagine that smart people have some pitiable deficits. I'm afraid that many, many smart people are doing just fine. If they join a club, its often for the same reason anyone else joins a club - to meet people with like interests.

I'm not drawing a distinction between smart and not-smart people here. I'm suggesting that perhaps the 99% of people qualified for Mensa who don't join are better-adjusted than the 1% who do join.
