No problem. As long as they dont make The Doctor a woman. Ya gotta have SOME standards!
Is there an award for thread drift?
I went to see The Fellowship of the Ring on my 50th birthday. A true geek will appreciate the significance of this.

I never got one, so no :)
I'm almost afraid to post it but my score was 72.38659% - Geek God.
I really don't believe in these tests... But, I feel like I belong to this group so I took this test...
56.21302% - Extreme GeekI probably could have scored higher if I said my wife is a geek. She's much too nice be labeled such, though. But I suspect that given she gets the 5 extra boxes as well as checking off that she's married to a geek, she might beat me. :*) She just looked over my shoulder and said "But I would never do that, dear."

Hmmm, another thing to add to my Geek update list. I've got one too, just don't put it in my sig. Got it back when you still needed code for a Tech...
Looks like the first one to top me...

Actually, I saved the thing to a file. In one reference it is Clarke, in the one you quote, it's Clark...

I would have had Spaceman Spiff boxers several years ago but my 22 yearold son stole them from under the Christmas tree before I got to them.

snip long list of 1960s-1970s stuff
That's getting pretty redundant--any self-respecting [computer] geek our age would has done most of that :-)
But if you really want to add more, you could include:
the computer business before 1980
How about adding stuff in other areas:
Oscilloscope Crystal radio Any test instrument with a nixie tube display More than three soldering irons (and knows which to use when) Bought and successfully installed replacement parts for a consumer electronics item (clock radio, VCR, TV, etc) Home made telescope
...
Can name the Mercury 7 Can name the Mercury spacecraft
--tc
Here's the scary part--I ran into a middle-school history teacher (and for the 'gifted' students!) who had never heard of the Mercury program...

I loved the Circuit Cellar articles. BYTE was a really good magazine in it's early days.
That's about the capacity of the 8" diskettes I used at one time... :-)
The "Circuit Cellar" has been a mag unto itself for 10-15 years! "Circuit Cellar, Inc" - I see it in the rack at B&N, and did have a subscription for a few years!
I used more than you did!
I'm not worthy!
actually, I'm not surprised with your answers to my suggested Geek Test additions AND Bob K.'s !

I refuse to take the test. I do not want to be (outted as) worthy, and this thread scares me!
