Maybe she'd make the same judgment if she did know me. After all, I don't paint, and I do use computers! And if that's the way it'd be, hey, that's okay. We don't have to be friends. I'll probably never run into her at an orgy. :-)
Seriously, just a few days agao I was wondering when we'd start seeing more geek-bashing again. It went out of style when dotcoms made geeks the millionaires of the moment. Now that lots of folks lost their shirts in the aftermath, there's a lot of angst to go around, and geeks seemed the likely target.
Yup. Which is about as intelligent as blaming Enron's janitors for its collapse. There's a reason non-geeks aren't geeks. :-)
