I am obliged to proffer a word of gratitude. So, thanks.

P.S. On a tangentially related note, how did you discover my Kongregate profile? Did you stumble upon it by happenstance or is this a premeditated conspiracy to take over the Universal Empire?

before we part ways to succumb to our slumber in darkness of night, what say thee about IQ testing? do you believe it is an accurate measure of innate intelligence or is it worthless and to be discredited altogether?

IQ test reflect certain aspects of intelligence (such as pattern recognition), but fails to test things like the ability to memorize and recall facts. It is a good indicator, but not a definite measure of intelligence.

Please defer per contextualizing your stipulation. What is the council and what am I, as an engineer, supposed to perform for said organization? I am honored to be inducted into your guild and for that I offer thee my compliments. Do you consider bifurcating our division by inducting yet more members or is this entire thing an entertaining hoax? I strongly suspect that the latter is the case. xD

That’s actually the 3D skeleton of a 4D cube technically referred to as a tesseract! Although the visual is 3D in itself, it’s representative of higher dimensional geometry. I’m glad that you’re interested though.

The absence of evidence (i.e. visual perception pertaining to higher dimensions) is not, in itself, evidence of absence (i.e. that higher dimensions don’t exist in a scientifically tangible format). Just because tesseracts (4-D squares) and even topologically greater hypercubes in terms of remoteness from currently practical phenomena aren’t directly perceivable by current means of technological contrivances doesn’t impugn the elements of higher-dimensional geometry in a verifiable way. Physicists speculate (via the conduit of superstring symmetry and whatnot) that there are higher dimensions tightly rolled up within the manifold of our 3-D universe- mathematics says it exists. As I see no reason as to why higher dimensions don’t exist and some progress in proving that they do exist as previously stipulates, i’m tending towards believing that they, in fact, are real factors to the constitution of natural reality. However, I do agree with you, at least, upon the issue of higher-dimensional surrealism in the sense that they are mind-boggling by apprehension. PM me if you want to continue this discussion further. I’ll be happy to oblige to elaborating.
