In an effort to lay this discussion to rest, we went and found a geek test on the net (http://www.innergeek.us/geek.html) and are having staff complete it. Here are the results for some staff. THE REST OF YOU HAD BETTER SUBMIT YOUR RESULTS!
| Staff member | Geek Number | Geek level |
| Melissa Tapawan | 0.99 | Poser |
| Giselle Nazareno | 2.6 | Poser |
| Annalee Schellenberg | 3.74 | Poser |
| Kevin Aichele | 5.72 | Poser |

| Jesse Bell | 11.83 | Geekish Tendencies |
| Clint Skibitzky | 14.99 | Geekish Tendencies |

| Olaf Pyttlik (when I filled it out for him... he lies | 19.72 | Geek |
| Jayson Kowal | 22.0 | Geek |
| Paul Bell | 24.66 | Geek |
Jayson also recommended a Nerd Test to us (who knew there was a difference between a geek and a nerd?). These were also interesting results.... (http://www.nerdtests.com/ft_nt2.php if you want to try it out and send me your results...)
Clinton Skibitzky (me!) ... what the heck is with the History/Lit Geek thing. I can't deny it however... I have maps of Constantine's Empire and the routes taken on each of the crusades on my study wall at home, as well as a timechart history of the world I found at the British Museum (it is COOL... oh heck, that is embarrassing...)
Ruth Vanstone Ruth just dreams about being as big of a History/Literature as I am... Someday Ruth, someday, perhaps!
Paul Bell you SUCK as a nerd, Paul (odd... he had the highest geek score, but a really low nerd one). Someone take his pocket protector away...
Nolan Balzer OOOH, a close race between science fiction (SCI-FI Nolan not SCIENCE!) and literature for Nolan!
Jesse Bell OK, Jesse isn't even TRYING!
Jayson Kowal No question where Jayson's tendencies lie...
Olaf Pyttlik ... Olaf has not bothered to take this test yet, but I feel qualified to do it for him. When you actually do it I will replace your results with these... super-hero-nerd-buddy!
