You are very good, sir.

My other previous IQs:

Were you a female American painter known for her still-life works and landscapes of the Southwest? - I had a mental glitch; I was thinking of Georgia O’Keefe, who of course wasn’t a “C”
Were you one of the two men who would be king, in Kipling’s tale? - Peachey Carnehan

Our next letter will be

S
