No, I think if I am smart enough to figure something out it should be
obtainable by most every one else. I have most often commented in years
past, If I can figure it out you should be able to figure it out. If
you can't figure it out, I may not be able to either.


Aren't you leaving major parts of the solving ability out? I think
people can be comparable in intelligence yet have different aptitudes.
Aptitudes that can enable someone to solve something while another
similarly intelligent person has greater difficulty.

Maybe one person has an aptitude for mathematics while another person
might have an aptitude for a science. Possibly one person might
possess the doggedness to keep working on a problem while someone else
with fairly equal intelligence might give up much more easily. There's
all sorts of variables that come into play that may not be related to
straight intelligence.
