Why be such a separatist in everyday affairs? Fear of dealing with reality?

Depends who I'm having the conversation with...

If I'm talking with a non-technical (non-geek) person, no. But I am very much willing to explain to him/her until they give up (which happens quite often). LOL! But I'm not saying I'm a super geek... but I'm definitely geekier than a lot of my peers. Grin

If I admit to being comfortable with you fellow geeks, is that considered to be 'geeky'? Hahaa...I talk about whatever I want with my friends..thats why we?re friends, because they don?t judge me in a negative light (well, not enough to get rid of me as a friend anyway!)
