Faster = More Intelligent.  Now there's an interesting premise...

According to relativity theory, clocks (and bodily processes, and everything
else) run faster at the top of a mountain or on a plane than they do at sea
level.  This has been experimentally confirmed.

Thus it seems that one can become more intelligent merely by climbing a
mountain.  Of course the effect is temporary...

Maybe this is why we always see cartoons about people climbing mountains to
inquire about "the meaning of life" (?)
