Exactly. And complaining about how they weren't paid for being smart.
When I asked what they had _contributed_, to make profits at the
company where they worked, they got all hostile (and acted like
Democrats :)

I joined around 1973 and dropped out in 1977, didn't care for people
who think a "party" means bringing a bottle of any old cheap booze and
pouring it into the communal "Mensa Punch Bowl"... yeccch!

I love to cook with wine.      Sometimes I even put it in the food.
