Sorry Medallion Kid, but a 15 year old with a 100 IQ would have the average intelligence of a 15 year old by definition. The genius range is generally considered to

be between 140 and 150.

YEAH I KNOW A IQ OF 100 IS NOT THAT GREAT BUT 140-150 IS REALLY GOOD

What's really frustrating is that even if you are the smartest one here, and figure out exactly what all the clues mean, its still usually a matter of dumb luck as to

whether or not you stumble across it in the snow.

Allison: I've been to Linwood and it is possible but so are other Parks. The famous name clue could fit at Linwood, i.e., St. Clair or more precisely Sinclair Lewis.

Othe clues don't quite fit though. Do you still think Como.

Frack has to do with Linwood. There is a Triangle Park. I was built in 1996. I called AT&T "00" INFO. to confirm it. Triangle Park is not far from linwood.
