- Lancelot Lionel Ware OBE was an English barrister, biochemist and co-founder of Mensa International. Lancelot Ware's main claim to fame is co-founding Mensa, the international society for intellectually gifted people, with the Australian barrister Roland Berrill in 1946. They originally called it the "High IQ Club". Ware was born in Mitcham, Surrey, the eldest son of a businessman father and musical mother. He attended Steyning Grammar School and Sutton Grammar School. He then became a Royal Scholar at Imperial College London, reading mathematics, followed by a PhD in biochemistry. He undertook medical research with Sir Henry Dale at the National Institute for Medical Research in Hampstead, London, and became a non-clinical medical researcher and lecturer in biochemistry at St Thomas' Hospital in London. During World War II, Ware worked at the Porton Down secret research establishment. He then worked as a scientist for the Boots Company in Nottingham. During this time, he learned about IQ tests. At the end of the war in 1945, he started a law degree at Lincoln College, Oxford. While at Oxford, he founded Mensa on 1 October 1946. Initially the society was intended for the top 1% of the population by intelligence, but a standard deviation computing error meant it ended up being the top 2%, and this criterion has remained since then. In 1949, Ware was called to the Bar by Lincoln's Inn and he practised in the Chancery field, specialising in intellectual property, copyright and patent matters. He was also very interested in Conservative politics. He became an Alderman of the London County Council (LCC) in the 1960s. By 1950, Ware had left Mensa, largely due to his other interests in politics and law. However, after Roland Berrill died in 1961, he was persuaded to rejoin the society. Ware joined the Athenaeum Club in 1983, a London club for intellectuals. He was awarded an OBE for services to the Institute of Patentees and Inventors, which he chaired for many years. Ware retired from the Bar in 1985, when he lived in Surrey, London, Exeter and back to Surrey again, in succession.
- Lancelot Lionel Ware OBE war ein englischer Rechtsanwalt und Mitgründer von Mensa International. Lancelot Wares Berühmtheit gründet sich hauptsächlich auf die Gründung von Mensa International, die bekannte internationale Gesellschaft für Hochbegabte, gemeinsam mit dem australischen Anwalt Roland Berrill im Jahr 1946. Ursprünglich sollte der Verein "High IQ Club" heißen. Ware wurde als ältester Sohn eines Geschäftsmann und einer Musikerin geboren. Er war auf der Steyning Grammar School und der Sutton Grammar School. Später besuchte er Imperial College London und studierte Mathematik, gefolgt von einem Doktortitel (PhD) in Biochemie. Er war an medizinischer Forschung zusammen mit Sir Henry Dale am National Institute for Medical Research in Hampstead, London beteiligt und wurde in nicht-klinischer medizinischer Forscher und Dozent für Biochemie am St. Thomas' Hospital in London. Während des Zweiten Weltkriegs arbeitet Ware an der geheimen militärischen Forschungseinrichtung Porton Down. Danach arbeitete er für die Boots Company in Nottingham. Während dieser Zeit lernte er IQ-Tests kennen. Am Ende des Kriegs 1945, begann er ein Rechtsstudium am Lincoln College, Oxford. Während seiner Zeit an der Oxford, gründete er am 1. Oktober 1946 Mensa International. Ursprünglich sollte die Gesellschaft die 1 % intelligentesten Mitglieder der Gesellschaft versammeln, durch einen Rechenfehler kam man dann zu den intelligentesten 2 % der Gesellschaft, was bis heute das Beitrittskriterium für Mensa ist. Ware trat 1983 dem Athenaeum Club für Intellektuelle bei. Er wurde mit dem OBE ausgezeichnet und seine Leistungen für das Institute of Patentees and Inventors zu belohnen, welchem er jahrelang vorsaß. Ware trat 1985 in den Ruhestand und lebte dann zunächst in Surrey, London, Exeter und später wieder in Surrey.
- Il principale motivo della sua fama, sta precisamente nell'aver fondato - insieme all'avvocato australiano Roland Berrill - il Mensa, la società internazionale di persone intellettualmente dotate. Essi originariamente lo chiamarono l' "High IQ Club", cioè il "Club dell'alto QI". Ware nacque a Mitcham, Surrey, primogenito di un padre manager e di una madre musicista. Frequentò la Steyning Grammar School e la Sutton Grammar School. Divenne in seguito Royal Scholar presso l'Imperial College dell'Università di Londra, dove studiò Matematica, cui seguì un dottorato in Biochimica. Intraprese la ricerca medica con Sir Henry Dale presso l'Istituto Nazionale per la Ricerca Medica, il National Institute for Medical Research di Hampstead di Londra, e divenne medico ricercatore e docente di biochimica presso il St Thomas' Hospital di Londra. Durante la seconda guerra mondiale, Ware lavorò ad una ricerca segreta presso Porton Down. In seguito lavorò come scienziato per la Boots Company, a Nottingham. In questo periodo, conobbe ed ebbe a che fare con gli esami del Quoziente Intellettivo (IQ tests). Alla fine della guerra, nel 1945, cominciò a frequentare un corso di laurea in giurisprudenza al Lincoln College, dell'Università di Oxford. Durante questo periodo a Oxford, fondò il Mensa il 1º ottobre 1946. Inizialmente la società era stata pensata per l'1% della popolazione con il più alto grado di intelligenza, ma una variazione nel calcolo nella deviazione standard (secondo la curva di Gauss) portò il limite al 2% della popolazione (o 98° percentile), e questo criterio è rimasto da allora. Nel 1949, Ware fu abilitato alla professione di avvocato dal Lincoln's Inn e fece praticantato al Chancery, specializzandosi in proprietà intellettuale, diritti d'autore e brevetti. Egli si interessò anche di politica in particolare con il partito dei Conservatives e divenne un assessore del London County Council (LCC), nel 1960. Dal 1950, aveva lasciato il Mensa, in gran parte a causa di altri suoi interessi per la politica e il diritto. Tuttavia, dopo che Roland Berrill morì nel 1961, decise di rientrare nella società. Ware entrò a far parte dell'Athenaeum Club nel 1983, un club di intellettuali di Londra. Venne nominato Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE), per i servizi resi all'Institute of Patentees and Inventors, che ha presieduto per molti anni. Ware andò in pensione nel 1985, quando viveva a Surrey, Londra.
