Mad or a Genious?

I just read this article in a paper called "Illustrated Science" where they mentioned the real deal about being intelligent.
Yay, I got a link for better info. My english translation was rather bad.

I would say mad. Seeing as you spelled GENIUS wrong.

You took the words right out of my mouth.
In fact, I'd say it's neither. "Stupid" seems more fitting, in reguards to this post anyway.
Shelley Carson developed a new test for creativity, which includes asking people what novel things they could do if they had six fingers on their hands.
I could uh...well...any volunteers?
That article makes sense to me.
I'm a musician and people tend to think of me as a little crazy.
Also I've already thought of what novel things I could do if I had six fingers on my hands.
All of them have been playing instruments.
Like I could play guitar chords nobody else could!
Well typing faster would also be cool.

The only chords I can think of like that would be almost practically useless, since I figure they'd sound dissonant. I suppose you could play with a capo and experiment with what they'd be like anyway.
Not sure about other instruments though.

Sorry, I had to translate the whole chapter from swedish to english and well, don't expect to much from a 14 year old. ^^

Dissonance in the right places can be very effective.
I could also possibly have an advantage on the piano or reach higher notes on the violin or cello without changing position.
I'd say an extra finger is all around handy.

I like music... it's just a shame it has to come from musicians. No offense to anyone, but I find them to be the most irritating group of people.
