I would point out that we are all posting on an internet forum.AKA "definition of nerd".
Hmmm... you have a point.
THAT was funny! Though the fact that Potsie is calling YOU is kinda incriminating ..... I have a BS and MS in computer science, have worked for 21 years in IT, and drive my wife nuts with all my "blinking black boxes" as she calls any piece of electronic equipment. Yes, I'm pretty nerdy.
But on the other hand, I've NEVER liked Star Trek but my brother who's a CPA and has 30+ years in banking is a hardcore Trekkie. Go figure.
