If you look into American History(if you're so inclined to such boredom), you'll see that the North/South-smartest/dumbest connection, has existed since the early days. I think it has something to do with season.(ie colder weather/probably more inclined to stay inside and read) My wife told me about a study she read about in school, that stated, basically, the warmer the weather, the slower the brain operates! I can tell you that, without a doubt, driving in South Florida on a hot day......definitely NOT much cranial activity from drivers around here!

     But then I don't know anything, I'm just from dumb 'ol 44. (Arizona)
Wonder why we got so low in rankings?
Hmmmmm, I know!!!
    Because of the swealtering heat here! It's shriveling our brains to ant size!  ;D

I think the scale has more to do with raw data, ie: test grades, report cards..........etc..    Basically put, it's a measure of the caliber of the students being dispensed from the CURRENT school system, not a judgement of the intelligence of the overall community.
