The Lab Pet contributes intelligence to science, which it needs, but until lightning strikes the tower and is carried down into the Laboratory and induces life into your parts collection, your work is not close to done.
So I contend that The Lab Pet is not a Genius due to lack of production of a Genius Work. Which is a needed step to get accepted into the Genius Guild.
I also contend that The Lab Pet is not a Genius because these agreeing Diagonosticians have a range of 145 to 160 for Genius, and The Lab Pet is overqualified.
The Lab Pet is in fact of the Blood of The Elder Gods, which is a seperate Guild.
Mea Culpa. Sort-of. To clarify (from a later post): Lab Pet is a Neuroscientist (that's not neurology)! But to the point: I actually have had lightning strikes in lab but it's not what you're thinking
Let me explain.....first, it wasn't my fault! My lab is basically a faraday cage inside faraday cage so there's radio signal (& good my advisor & others do not have a pacemaker)! So I decided to get radio reception, the hard way.
Not only did I get AM/FM radio waves but also short-wave and beyond. I attached the cheap radio battery terminals to lab metal-handled brushes, to coat hangers, grounded, then to metal coat roack ultimately to the copper plumbing (that would be the safety shower) which is attached to the fume hoods all the way to the roof of the Arctic Science Building.
So we had awesome radio signal! For a while...then sparks. Then the track lighting, like a domino cascade, went out in a slow procession.
THEN LIGHTNING STRIKES!! ! BLUE LIGHTNING STRIKES!! !
Then (Lab Pet is so in trouble by now...), the power outage took out the Arctic Science Building. The University then had a sweeping outage. My PI/advisor told me, very discretely, to dismantle (in the dark). I did this.
By coincidence (?) the Fairbanks power grid went out. I swear, it's not my fault and there is such a thing as coincidence. Fairbanks does have widespread outages from time to time anyway.
The take-home message: Lab Pet meets and greets the qualifications (iq # wise, that is) but has some fine-tuning to do. And not just the radio.
I take the Inventor's words as a challenge. This means I have work to do. Specifically, MORE work (is that possible)? But I'm in progress. And that's Neuroscience.
No radio in lab? Lab Pet needs stimming music.
Now you know.
