I don't know if it helps a whole lot. I've had almost none of
my own really good ideas while working focussed on a problem.
They just pop into my mind while commuting, cooking, sporting
or taking a shower. Random association of ideas is a wonderful
thing, and I have no idea how much it is correlated with IQ
when you get beyond a certain level...
If somebody has an idea how much the additional IQ points help
(say, between 140 and 160), that would be good information.
A general statement of "it makes a world of difference, but I
have no idea how much" is not nearly as useful ;)
