I think if you look back through your comments you'll see that the argument you're making here doesn't square with the confident assertion you made earlier that you'd get national average IQ by simply averaging the IQ test scores of people in different countries.

This paper was your best cite for the existence of national IQ averages, and it refutes your argument. If you have another cite, you should expect me to actually read that one too.

I'm pretty comfortable with where this thread has landed. Thanks for fleshing it out with me.
