So you're asking if being able to do mathy/techy stuff makes you 
*really* clever. Maybe. I do know some guys with poor math and language 
skills who have incredible aptitude for achieving what they want in life.

I'll agree with you that in a way you are dumb because you don't seem 
very happy. From what I can tell, you are an extreme extrovert who isn't 
very effective at getting what he wants from people. A "smart" extrovert 
would have a good sense of how to please/manipulate/whatever the people 
around him.

Organ playing without aptitude and mastery of unpopular programming 
languages are dead ends - especially socially. A lot of people spend 
their time on dead-end paths. Are they dumb, or do they just enjoy being 
there? I'll have to examine that question more closely next time I find 
myself there.
