What you said?.....me! Oh great choice ..thank you....who other then me... Oh common you can't point that finger to yourself for this one. Just kidding. But seriously, Is there any one who has really impressed you with his or her smartness alone? I'll probably say Mr. K.K.Gupta. My uncle.

I would be hard put to come up with one. I have recently finished 9 years of university, and I came across literally hundreds of exceptionally smart people there. My own IQ, for what it's worth, is in the mid 140s, and many of the people I mention above make me look stupid. I would have a choice of several exceptional people, and I wouldn't presume to try to separate them. Lash

Oh I do not think they could make you look stupid. Even if they were smarter than you I think that observation is a little extreme.

To me its my husband. And by smart I not only mean brainy but his overall ability to handle situations. After that definitely comes my dad. Had my husband not been so smart, dad would have easily beaten him to top this list. Dad is real smart in guessing people’s intentions and analyzing situations.

My partner is probably the smartest person I know and associate with these days. I have known lots of smart people in my life. All the people I worked with at Uni and many of the students were smart. I loved being at Uni as it was mixing with smart people all the time and we had lots of intelligent discussions.

I would probably have to say my paternal grandfather. Although he passed away when I was young, my dad has spoken of him often. And he's told me about a lot of things that my grandfather would say, and do and stuff. I can't help but think of him as an extremely smart man, and be proud to be his granddaughter.

That's so sweet. I would obviously like to mention my relative, and my round-the-clock friend, who stays by my side for a lion-share of each day - observing my activities online. And makes friendship with local people using online communication. He is 110% smart in making new friends and influence them like nothing. I have not seen anybody other than him taking up life in a so 'Happy' mood. Obviously, he has every reason for doing so having an enviable lady luck. Cheers!

It would have to be my 17 year old son. He is very smart he passed all his G.C.S.Es with flying colours back in the summer and is now studying 4 A-levels. He is a brilliant mathematician and has been advised to do maths at university by his teachers. He is very knowledgeable about things. His teachers say his brain is like a sponge as he absorbs a lot of knowledge and remembers it all with no problem.

I would have to say my cousin from Canada. She is brilliant and a little wacky. She's a writer. She won a Canadian writing contest with a short story and right now she is turning it into a novel. She is also very wise and helps me with kind advice. She is the only living person in my family who I feel understands me and I understand her too. That's why I talk to her as much as possible and I number her as my closest friend. And I only met her face to face twice! But I talk to her every week or so.

The name looks familiar, I think it was with the love guru movie. I would definitely say me, but since you said other than me, I would go for my parents since they passed it on me.

I would have to say my daughter is the smartest person I know. The reason I picked my daughter is because she picks up on everything but she may struggle sometimes. My daughter daughter started reading chapter books at age 6 and she is now 8 years old. Her reading level in school is very good and I am very proud of her because of the good work she does. When I was her age I was not doing almost half of the things she is doing now.
