    You know, I think I'm a little of both. Which makes me better paid than my non-nerdy, non-geeky counterparts. ;P //L

      When you talk to a nerd he looks at his shoes When you talk to a geek he looks at your shoes.

      I'm pretty sure I would not like to live in a world in which I would never be offended. I am absolutely certain I don't want to live in a world in which you would never be offended. Dave

        Upon receiving the daily newsletter, the following jumped off the page: Space is limited: Register Now for The Code Project Tech Summit on Visual Studio 2010![^] I didn't get further than the "Space is limited" bit before I almost yelled at the monitor, "Oh yeah? How about you go about PROVING that!!!" ...I blushed with embarrasment upon reading the rest of the sentence. I am a geek. And proud of it. //L [edit] Fixed link, thanks goes to CM for spotting it.
