Well... ...social pressure does start early I guess. I "blame" one of the facts that I am now what is commonly termed a female geek on going to a highschool where there was a total of two other girls! If anything the 3 of us would have had a miserable life if we _weren't into tinkering with things and taking them apart! Of course we also had plenty of access to computers and when I think of highschool these days coding bad Pascal and playing Kings Quest3 jumps to mind rather than worrying about dates. Just my 2 cents... Btw I prefer being termed a nerd than a geek though :)
