Re: [OT] Nerds
Why would anyone in a sci-fi 4X game forum be interested in an essay about nerds?

Re: [OT] Nerds
Disregard my prior post. I just read this article, and it hits the nail on the head re: the problems with American public schools. This guy has obviously put his philosophical and sociological training to good use.

Re: [OT] Nerds
i've read the article before, and i tell you, its true. i experienced (and still relatively am) what is described there, and lived thru it. call me a nerd, i no longer care, for im happy the way i am ^_^ and i realized that unpopularity originates in thoughts of unpopularity. wont go into details.
