Geek: GS
I'm a geek of science.
Dress: d+
Good leisure-wear. Slacks, button-shirt, etc. No jeans, tennis shoes, or t-shirts.
Shape: s-:+
I look up to most people.
I'm a little rounder than most.
Age: a
I'm between 30 and 39.
Computers: C+(+++)
    I range from ...
Computers are fun and I enjoy using them. I play a mean game of DOOM! and can use a word processor without resorting to the manual too often. I know that a 3.5" disk is not a hard disk. I also know that when it says 'press any key to continue', I don't have to look for a key labeled 'ANY'.
    ... to ...
You mean there is life outside of Internet? You're shittin' me! I haven't dragged myself to class in weeks.
Unix: UA+
AIX:
I not only have an account, but I slam VMS any chance I get.
Perl: P
I know Perl exists, but that's all.
Linux: L+
I've managed to get Linux installed and even used it a few times. It seems like it is just another OS.
Emacs: !E
I don't use Emacs.
Web: W++
I have a homepage. I surf daily. My homepage is advertised in my .signature.
Usenet: N+
I read news recreationally when I have some time to kill.
Usenet Oracle: !o
I don't consult the Usenet Oracle.
Kibo: !K
I intentionally avoid Kibo.
Windows: w---
Windows has set back the computing industry by at least 10 years. Bill Gates should be drawn, quartered, hung, shot, poisoned, disembowelled, and then REALLY hurt.
OS/2: O++
I use OS/2 for all my computing needs. I use some DOS and Windows programs, but run them under OS/2. If the program won't run under OS/2, then obviously I don't need it.
Macintosh: M--
Macs do more than suck. They make a user stupid by allowing them to use the system without knowing what they are doing. Mac weenies have lower IQs than the fuzz in my navel.
VMS: V+++
I am a VMS sysadmin. I wield far more power than those UNIX admins, because UNIX can be found on any dweeb's desktop. Power through obscurity is my motto.
Politics-Social: PS++
I give to liberal causes. I march for gay rights. I'm a card carrying member of the ACLU. Keep abortion safe and legal.
Politics-Economic: PE+
Balance the budget with spending cuts and an amendment.
Cypherpunks: Y+
I have an interest and concern in privacy issues, but in reality I am not really all that active or vocal.
PGP: PGP+
"Finger me for my public key"
Trek: t++
It's the best show around. I have all the episodes and the movies on tape and can quote entire scenes verbatim. I've built a few of the model kits too. But you'll never catch me at one of those conventions. Those people are kooks.
Babylon 5: 5
I've seen it, I am pretty indifferent to it.
X-Files: X--
If I wanted to watch this kind of stuff, I'd talk to Oliver Stone
Roleplaying: R*
I thought life WAS role-playing?
Television: tv-
I watch tv for the news and 'special programming'.
Books: b+>b+++
I enjoy reading, but don't get the time very often.
    ... but I'd like to be ...
_Unknown books code b+++_
Dilbert: DI++
I work with people that act a lot like Dilbert and his boss.
DOOM!: !D
I don't play Doom.
Geek Code: G-
What a tremendous waste of time this Geek Code is.
Education: e++++
Managed to get my Ph.D.
Housing: h*
I'm not sure where I live anymore. This lab/workplace seems like home to me.
Relationships: r
I date periodically.
Sex[m]: y?
It's none of your business what my sex life is like.
