It's ironic that there's a comment about intelligence tests being misleading, and that no scale is defined for the supposed IQ score of 250 to 300. 'IQ' means nothing by itself--you need to know which scale is being used (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligence_quotient#Reliability http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligence_quotient#Reliabili...). 110 on one can equal 150 on another--and that's the main reason IQ scores are chiefly given in 'percentile of population', i.e. "higher than 98% of the population", nowadays.
