I think you'll find that Tanya Khovanova is in easily the top 0.1% of any general intelligence test you'd choose.

so she's only 1 in 1000?

Yes, that is what 0.1% means. Here is a good explanation of decimal fraction notation: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal#Decimal_fractions

Apologies, apparently Internet irony once again flew by undetected, my post was to highlight that to be in the top 0.1% is hardly that rare or unusual As Tim minchin says, even if you're 1 in a million, there's still 7,000 of you
