A mensa of a mistake

Considering Mensa will only allow the top 2 percentile of the population to become a member, you would think a similar standard would be applied to the material on their website.

It is likely we have all taken an IQ test at some stage in our lives. You may even be able to recall the questions that test reasoning and pattern recognition, along the lines of \"if you reversed the order of the sequence 1,4,6,3 would the result be 3,4,6,1?\"

So if you follow the link to the contacts page on the Mensa website, it is ironic to see their efforts to avoid email harvesting software has resulted in a clanger for email addresses:

Email:Chair at mensa dot. org dot au

Of course, that would make chair@mensa..org.au!

From the organisation that supposedly represents high intelligence...
