Articles like this only serve to heighten the effect, especially since readers might not even visit Less Wrong after reading such an article.

The article basically says that we are a bunch of weird people with an average IQ of 138. That means that most people who read the article won't think they are at home on LW and most people probably wouldn't. On the other hand readers who want to take part in a high level discussion forum, might be motivated to check out LW.

It's okay that not everybody wants to join LW.
