Hmm i've never gotten any sort of remarks or vibes from people that felt
persecuting. People I talk to in a chat room I visit just call me geeky. I
then remind them that most of them are geeks too, otherwise why would they
go in so much :). I also point out to the programmers that programmers are
geekier than language geeks :) (no offense to you programmers on the list)
=).
