Up until recent changes, Keith Raniere’s bio on his website, http://www.keithraniere.com [Aug. 13, 2017] proclaimed: “Noted as one of the world’s top three problem solvers, Keith Raniere was honored in 1989 by the Guinness Book of World Records in the category of highest IQ.

In any case, Stephan Hawkings’ answer explains that he was very intelligent, and above all he did not define intelligence which is exellent. The question will always remain ‘what is the intelligence’ ???? ……
