When the craze was big I bought several of the magic eye books. They never had anything that quite popped out like that, though. I remember seeing an "x-rated" magic eye book for sale through Quality Paperback Book Club a couple years ago, but I never bothered buying it.

No. I got the leaflet through after I qualified and it looked like a 1970's mental institution; a largely older clientele assembled in manicured gardens with implausible dress sense and no facial expressions. Ill-informed judgements aside, though, I never really felt the urge to participate in an IQ swap-shop, and as radar says, waste time attempting to communicate with people who have limited social skills. Now if they replaced intelligence tests with drinking games I would be much more inclined to show up (who needs brain cells anyway).

I took Mensa's online test that tells you if you have a shot of getting in. I passed it. I think I would have needed to take an "official" test before being accepted. It's been a while, but I believe that they take the top 2% in intelligence. Out of a world of 6 Billion people, that means that 120,000,000 people meet the requirements for Mensa membership. It is NOT an exclusive club.
120 million people... That's like the population of Canada, right? |

It was interesting to speculate on what the puzzle was, with such limited clues. |

I'm dumb, I can't get the rose puzzle. I'm blind, I can't see the magic image. If I were deaf I could play a mean pinball.
