Maybe list of known ultra-IQ folks consists those people precisely because they've chosen something that gives 'knownability'? And a lot of scientists or teachers aren't mentioned just because they didn't get 'famous' job?

But I thought it was interesting that the same list wasn't an intersection of notable AND did something you'd expect smart people to be doing. A list of Stephen Hawkings for example.
