You have no idea what you are talking about.
Subtracting the mean from a score and dividing by sigma does not make the
results normal.
Dividing moments by sigma does not make the moments normal.
Take the skew and kurtosis moments and divide by sigma; you still have a
skewed and/or flat/peaked distribution curve.
You can throw around words like skew and kurtosis all you like. It
won't make IQ tests any more accurate once you get past five or six
standard deviations above the norm. They're still *** at that point,
as you can tell by looking at the dumbfucks who have supposedly
stratospheric IQs but yet, have achieved nothing.
Check out:

See if you think there is no face validity for extremely high scores.
Note, I am not claiming that the Biggest Little Moron's test is the cat's
pajamas, but the content of the Titan is pretty good. I may break down and
take it although then slicing problems bother me. (Go away,little boy.)
