* The high-IQ group [[Useful Notes/Mensa|Mensa]] was started in England, and no one knew how big it would eventually be. They chose "Mensa" because it means "table" in Latin - and symbolizing the coming together of equals, possibly not even realizing there would eventually be a Mexican chapter of Mensa... and "Mensa" loosely means "idiot" in Mexican Spanish. "Estas mensa?" is "Are you dumb?"
