Well I take that as a joke. I mean we are more than out physical looks. Because,
as I mentioned some in some other message, it is sad that the advertiser concept
of engineer, does have the image of what "an engineer should look like." We
techies and engineers come in various types and sizes.
I am funny convinced if we we accepted as we are, then we wouldn't have some
much reactive geek depression. Notice if is changing.m But alas it is because
techiedom might spell M-O-N-E-Y. But what to do when 11 year old girl appears at
your door and wants you to show show her the computer and she has already
nicknamed herself XSTACEY.
I'm sure I'll hit a nerve of girl children with the dreaded older men. I might
give the general tour. And yep there is the poster of Chyna with too many
muscles a with all the szine stuff posted on the wall.. So I might give the
general tour. let her play, and hand out a card with my address on it. ND see if
the person ab use the machine. That's vaguely how I learned..
Whether I will explain Exstasis (Ecstasy, means away from standing, stagnation
and to fall into some something neat and new). And that each one is supposed to
teach others what they learn I may lay off that. But I am worn tired with over
caution and in my view paranoia. I tried to keep this from a rant, this is a
techie issue, this is how many of us got interested and learn. And of course
being a person who pickled up some Canadian Values. I feel I should behave as if
I am in a position of trust because I am.
Have Fun,
Sends Steve
P.S. The overall point to me is that even though it is a temptation to judge ny
looks we really really shouldn't....
