My bf's parents(keep in mind they're Brits) dont understand the concept of geeks who barely know each other meeting up on holiday, so they basically asked him if he was sure it wasn't some kind of "religious cult" he was getting involved with!

So, basically- Allan, cheezi, jess, spungo, hey-U, littlefish, Dman, and myself all belong to a cult now!

Whoa! Crazy...I guess I'm a member of the Cult of Geeks?

By extension I imagine that also makes Xanthine something of a member of said cult - and not only have I probably taught her a little more about our ways, but she's met another of our NY chapter, Jess [Razz] . What can I say, this is one cult I like the idea of [Big Grin] . This is Geek Culture, after all. That reminds me, Jess, you going to LWE this week?

If you watch 'The History Of NASA' backwards, it's about a space agency that has no manned spaceflight capability, then does low-orbit flights, then lands on the Moon.

Could we jet off to Canada, USA, or Europe, and list the cost on our tax return as a religious donation?

My folks have similar irrational beliefs about this interweb thingy ( [Wink] )...

But I've been called a cult before and I suppose I'll be called it again! [ohwell]

Not me! I'm a morning person! I just hop out of bed with a yatoo spirit shout. Coffee helps with that. [crazy]
