AP Language is now represented on the International High IQ Society! I enlisted some help from people in the society in hopes of increasing the intellectual level of commenting on the blog! In order to avoid criticism and harsh disproofs, do better work! Haha this could get interesting...You all know how I like a little debate every now and then; nothing wrong with a little challenge, right?
