I always knew I was smarter than my siblings. Now I have this study backing me up in that claim. Anyway, this will be sure to spark some interesting debate regarding birth order. I have three siblings and the differences between me and the rest of them are sometimes tremendous. So, how much did birth order contribute to that? I don't know.
I just thought this was an interesting news story because I currently live with my younger brother. It's interesting to note the differences between us now that we are both twenty-somthings and not teenagers living at home. Do I think I'm smarter than him because I was born before him? No. But, I do think we see things and think about things in a slightly different way. It could be because I am the oldest and he is in the middle of the family. Or it could simply be a difference that is strictly there because we are two different people.
Are there any thoughts out there?
On an unrelated note, I'm going to have limited access to the Internet for the next month. I'll try to post as much as possible, but I apologize to my dedicated readers who might be thirsting for more.

Ya know, that's a good article, but I can't say that I agree with it at all. I am the youngest of 2 children...and I am WWAAAYYYYY more intelligent than my older sister. Now granted, I am a man, and we all know men are smarter as is. So i guess that kind of offsets things and still proves that I am, indeed smarter.
