After Mother Theresa I can't think of anyone! I actually met the lady once and chatted with her a bit - she was visiting our university...Yep, it was a while ago...As for my own HQ, it's probably somewhere in the negative range...

I dislike tooting my own horn but I think I have a pretty high HQ.  Sometimes it becomes melded with my EQ, however, and I take things very much to heart.  Enjoyed the post.....

I think the HQ (Human Quotient) is a good idea.

Maybe keep the scale simple -- say a 10 is a person who's pushing for sainthood, and a 1 is someone who is totally wrapped up in him/herself and wouldn't spit on anyone else if they were on fire. Some regular, generous guys would give you the shirt off their back, and some would give their other one, which may speak to having a healthy self-interest.
