Wow!
Oh man! Who the hell are you?
I know we got of to a slightly rocky start, but in all my experience here at Wiki, I've never been so blown away by another's intellect.
A lot of the people here are really bright, but...Wow!
Don't get me wrong, I tend to be extremely stingy when it comes this kind of praise. In my own circle of friends, I'm definitely the "intellectual" of the bunch, by far. Also, I'm an extremely proud guy, and it's extremely rare that I'd ever admit to meeting my intellectual match, if not my superiour! (My God! I'm such a proud guy that I can't even believe that I'm even considering that another may be my intellectual superiour!)
On the other hand, it's also possible that you're just on some sort of intellectual winning streak. Being a ball player, I know how streaks and slumps work. Or rather, I don't know how they work, I just understand how they just seem to happen.
In any case, PLEASE, stick around at the RefDesk!
And, if you'd care to, tell me whatever you can about yourself.
Your biggest Wiki fan,
Lewis

- I completely respect privacy and anonymity. Tell me as little as you wish. I just can't help help but wonder though, with a name like "Clio", that you must be female. Again, feel free to decline to reveal absolutely anything. Nonetheless, I'm enchanted by it all.
- But wait a sec, are you sure it was John Wayne and not Mae West who said "Flattery will get you everywhere"? I'll have to check up on that one, but you may be right after all.
- And one last thing. You've proven to me by your phrase "and as far as intellect is concerned I think we walk hand in hand" that you possess that final, most ultimate attribute that I value: Humility.
- All the Best,
- You forgot to include one last aspect: Yes, Socratic humility is important, but so is a touch of cheeky, smug, self-congratulatory humour! My own reply to Socrates should only be taken with a grain of salt. Or spice if you will. Just to spice up my userpage a touch. See you around, Clio!
