GeekMoksha
What is it to be a geek? It's to be interested in a blinding, mind-numbingly large set of unrelated, seemingly related, seemingly unrelated and related things. Read a 100+ page thesis on the "Slang of students at IITM" one hour, "Guidelines For a Space Propulsion Device Based on Heim's Quantum Theory" the next. Rejoice in the interconnectedness of all things!

About Me
- GeekBeyondRedemption
- A Geek by any other name. Talk to me for a few minutes about anything, has the conversation turned to a geeky level of detail yet? I hope to achieve Geek-Moksha, the location of which I have not yet discovered. And always remember, as G.B. Shaw said, "The reasonable man adapts himself to the world. The unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man."

i had the impression of gbs being a misognist for long, until man and superman told me otherwise, still i cannot take his megalomaniacism about uk and derogation to al the rest ..esp india..like kipling
I've not read G.B.Shaw, just like some of his quotes. I'm a pessimist and a cynic, so I tend to agree with the way he expresses his ideas. As a doctor I presume you can't afford to be a pessimist :-)
I had access to a copy of Man and Superman, but wasn't able to read it. How is the book? Is it a story of some kind? Or is it non-fiction?
I'm a hardcore Science Fiction fan(atic). I also read a lot of popular science and economics, etc. I stay about 50m away from 'literature' when possible. Where literature is defined as anything that would be up for a Booker prize for instance.
