   I've always considered them to be a bunch of people who are far too 
impressed with themselves, and can't find anything better to do with 
their brainpower.

   Personally, I'm probably not smart enough to join, and I have PLENTY 
to do with my brainpower (don't you?)...so I don't bother.

   And besides...what if you take their test and don't do well?  Will it 
cause self-confidence issues?  It sure would for me.
