Although John Sununu, PhD in chemical engineering, NH Governor, and 
later Bush-1 Chief of Staff, had one of the highest recorded scores 
on the Langdon IQ test that appeared in Omni. Kevin is a diligent 
psychometrician; Sununu's score is at the 1 in a million mark, around 
an IQ of 177.

On the other hand, he was a lousy Chief of Staff.
