What's wrong with smartness, Google has 650,000 hits for it.

Smartness sounds wrong, but I just looked it up in both of my dead tree collegiate dictionaries, and it's in there in each. Not as its own entry, but as a form of smart.

It's a noun we don't hear often in this country, so it triggers a WTF.
'intelligentness' ain't a word. Well it is but it ain't a real word with a definition and creds.
