Funny thing about these "culturally neutral" tests, is that you get better
at them the more of them you do. It gets easier to spot patterns in the way
the questions are formulated.

Also, powers of 2, pascal and fibbonacci sequences, come on. That's got to
be heavily culturally biased. Or maybe people who don't know the powers of 2
by sight are thickies?
