AnonTechie writes "In business, intelligence is always a critical element in any employee, because what we do is difficult and complex and the competitors are filled with extremely smart people. However, intelligence isn't the only important quality. Being effective in a company also means working hard, being reliable, and being an excellent member of the team. Companies where people with diverse backgrounds and work styles can succeed have significant advantages in recruiting and retaining top talent over those that don't."

    Personally, I think those other folks deserves whatever you and I dish out to them. In fact, they're lucky we acknowledge them at all.

    But when they start calling us "insecure", that's when we *really* know they're bewildered. Those others often get brilliance and insecurity confused. Personally, I think *they're* the ones who are insecure.

    (Note to any humor-impaired modders: the above was satire, not flamebait.)
