muscle*brain = const., it seems.
This says that intellectual and physical development seem to be
reverse rather than directly proportional values, which kisses your
theory bye-bye. You really do have a talent for putting a foot in your
mouth. ;) Where is your Bully God now, eh? 

BTW, by we now we had two physicists with degrees, and myself, an
ex-wannabe physicist without a degree, tell you more-less the same
thing about your theories. Why don't you start printing them on toilet
paper and put them to good use, for a change?
