@suzie1960 Yup. "Mensa" means "table" in Latin, and I believe the name was chosen because of the round table of symposia.

@SW-User Symposium means drinking party in Greek. ;)

heh, all one needs is an i.q. of 140, easy enough if the same tests are still being used today... and a bank account.

Not an acronym, just short for "Mons Mensae."
