Random poll for DC hobbyists and providers: Who is the most intelligent (however you define that: book smarts, conversational ability, practical knowledge) provider, local or otherwise you've had the pleasure of hanging out with?  DC's "Madame" Curie?

Smart and conversant over a wide range of topics.

But I'm smart enough not to answer this question.
ALL the DC treasures I've met are brighter than me.  
Nuff said

leads to a transition to another topic and an informative fact that raises eyebrows or initiates laughter D:
And a lot of my reviews do say I'm a witty sassy lady.

advanced degrees in both hard and soft sciences, international perspective, aware, witty, and funny.  A good sense of humor is a sign of intelligence.

I've known Rae for years when I use to go by Sierra. She is extremely intelligent, just read her steamy sex stories and you'll see. She's one of those women you can talk to about anything and she comes across as an expert in the field.  

The total package. Comfortable and functional in any environment or setting.

Abby Mustang, who comes to town only occasionally.  Her official title is "Dr." after spending time advertising herself as a "Grad Student" and now a "Former Grad Student"

I recently had the immense pleasure of spending some quality time with Ms. Amber Affection. I found her to be very smart, witty and engaging. We had a couple of fascinating conversations, ahem, between rounds. And she is hot as hell too!

 Mia is an ex of mine and despite her tattoos, this girl is extremely cultured. She knows world news internationally, stays current with popculture and politics, has a degree in Biz, minored in Psychology, and knows a lot of legalese that confuses me. Despite being a Republican, she is very open to opposing idea discussions and most recently read America: A Citizens Guide by Jon Stewart.  
   
 Cayden Vaughn always seems smart as a whip in her posts and in person. Not so much facts, but just in her ability to know what to say at the right time in the best way.

She's a republican.  That automatically disqualifies her from being smart.

Lol, it was a romping good time, you had me just as engaged!

the idea of the political construct of republics?  

classy. I believe her to be conversant on many issues.

Posting under an alias suggests to me that you don't have much courage in your convictions.

You are correct that Kelly is a passionate (in all senses of the word) Republican. I see her regularly, and I am definitely left of center. I make the following observations:

And I second Zoey Zacquery!

Yes, under an alias.  

I don't want to get into a pissing match with someone hiding behind a mask.  

Caressa is pretty smart.  She made a number of jokes, some at my expense , when I was with her.  Being humorous requires observation and creativity

...and classless. Just because Kelly's  views (or anyone else's for that matter) may be different than yours and she's well versed in what it takes to defend her beliefs, does not make her controlling, or a nut job.

I am impressed by intelligence, but I revere wisdom

Always felt Elaina (retired I think) was one of the brightest providers I have met. I'm sure there are several, several cerebral providers in DC but this is only based on many conversations with Elaina. Always told her she should write a book.
Would love to know where she is and how she is doing if anyone knows please email...thanks

So, the temptation here is to tee off on the obvious irony of someone choosing "Moocher" as an alias complaining about someone who might be a Republican, and who, one might infer, otherwise parades as a champion of "tolerance." But that would be too easy.

posts like always drum up interest.

If I want intellectual stimulation, I can talk to my professors at the university.

You are one of the most and best impressive providers I have met!  

You'll make the rest of us lefties sound like dicks.

I mean, what you mean to say is that you don't want intellectual stimulation, but if you ever found that you did, you might try talking to one of "your" professors -- as opposed to lowering yourself to talk to say, a provider, who you can't imagine stimulating anything on you above the belt.

I wouldn't sweat it Ric....not only does he post under an alias (which lends itself to enough scrutiny), but he is also probably the type of guy who is intimidated by seriously intelligent women. Therefore, he mocks, criticizes and denigrates those who are.

i have never found her posts to be anything but magnanimous and civil.
