Who do I owe for the use of my genes? My cells are using copys of said genes all the time (hopefully there is no copyright restriction as wekk since I've not paid anyone for the right to copy these genes).

Seriously easy thing to try. Get one of the architect like lamps and can bend and move anywhere, put it behind your monitor with the light facing up. This removes the contrast of bright monitor from the dark background. I've had zero eyestrain for years after doing that. You won't use that lamp to read by, it's only to remove the contrast. It's easy and really has helped.

Perhaps I've been spoiled living in Colorado my whole life, but that vast majority of "Geeks" that I've worked with here are the fittest people in the companies I"ve worked for. From marathon runners, to long distance cyclist, to yogis, to (obviously in Colorado) hard core skiers. Other offices in the company do have less fit geeks but over all I'd say they aren't any worse than the average employee in the company.

I think the perception of translucent/Mountain Dew drinking/Pizza&Cheetoes eating geeks is a little old and incorrect.

The following explains this phenomenon very well, and is worth a watch

Just remember, 640 Watts is Enough For Anyone!

OO OO ME TOO ME TOO!!

How about recursion? An atom is kind of like a solar system, a solar system is kind of like a galaxy, and a galaxy is kind of like the universe. (And perhaps the universe is kind of like the multiverse?)

I kind of jest, but not necessarily.
