        There were questions about TV shows. That's 100% wrong, because: (1) A true geeek doesn't watch TV. Passive media are for boring people who don't know what to do after work. (2) Never heard about "Firefly". When did they broadcast is in Germany?

        This statement is false.

        At the first questions, did you get extra points just due to the fact that you are a girl and you were answering a quizz for geeks ? I am just curious about how stereotyped the thing is.

            The company I work for operates a whitelist approach - so websites which they (Websense, that is) haven't yet got an opinion about are blocked as well. Sucks.

                55%, though it would have been lower without the computer game question. Yeah, I played some computer games in the 70s and hated most of them. It wasn't until Castle Wolfenstein in the early 90s that I finally said "Ah, this is what computer games should be." Even then it wasn't until the late 90s that they really arrived for me.

                                  Whoo hoo! Only 55%! Very unsure about "Who shot first?" -- I think they all shot first except Greedo. Would have picked "Huh?", but went with Han instead.
