I noticed that it gets even better, if you are a child of these lucky few:
"When people inherit C-variants from both parents they enjoy double the effect: a rise in IQ of about 2.6."
On another note, I noticed the gene in question HMGA2 was previously linked to a person's height. I wonder if an extension of this study would consider any possible correlation between height and intelligence in regards to variations in this gene.
