If you want more solutions, ask a chemist - they're apt to have a variety of solutions on hand.

(Physicists have problems, but chemists have solutions.  According to chemists, alcohol is a solution.)

Hey Edgar,
An octopus unscrewing a jar, and learning from experience which way to unscrew the lid:

tool use and planning ahead

/ 1 = intelligence

Note that I too have used addition signs in my argument, so I've answered your math with more math, + I used more kinds of math signs than you, so my math is clearly superior.  :)

LOL!!!

Octopus? has intelligence? Are you kidding me??

LOL!

Absolutely, yes they show intelligent behavior.  I have documented that they exhibit memory, learning, problem-solving, tool use, and planning ahead, all of which are standardly accepted signs of intelligence.  

In contrast, you have made unsupported assertions, on the supposed basis of some highly dubious terminology, which is in term based on some extremely problematic definitions created by you, which in turn rest on some more of your own bald unsupported assertions.  So by all the rules of science, so far you've got nothing.  

In addition, as mentioned earlier, I used more mathematical operators than you did, so by your standards my math is better.  :)
