Do I qualify? I'm not an American so not sure if I qualify as a nerd. I'm a nice if somewhat shy, mature M-F who is interested in science and nature, as well as technology (though I hate the creeping personal intrusion of "social media"). I don't bother with games now though I used to play. I also avoid forums as they are often populated by idiots who pretend to know things that they don't or simply argue for the sake of it. I'm old enough that I can remember a time when Doctor Who's Sonic Screwdriver seemed barely able to tighten screws on Bessie, let alone do odd jobs around the TARDIS, or in the modern episodes to disarm Cybermen and Daleks as well as healing rifts in the space-time continuum. That's technology for you. A time when Cybermen were the second scariest of the Dr's adversaries, rather than members of the one-handed-typist and webcam perv club. A time before Klingons had wrinkly heads. I also enjoy "classical music", although technically "Classical" refers to a period of time and a style rather than a descriptive for orchestral music. Do I think that it is appropriate to go on a hot date in the car park of the motorway service area with a cute guy, wearing a blouse under an Argyle tank top, sensible long skirt, sneakers (we call them trainers) and knee socks? Yes certainly!
