~Mike

[edit] wait im geekier then Dave Lavery is??? Come on he works for NASA! [/edit]

I got just over 48% (didn't copy it, though).

I do think I should get extra points for afterwards entering this in my bworser just for fun, though :)

Code:

javascript:for(var i=0; i<506; i++){document.forms[0].elements[i].checked = true;}; CountUp();

Or, how 'bout this:

Code:

javascript:document.forms[0].RESULT.value="Stephen Rawls, the quintessential geek!";NULL

(spaces added in the word javascript not mine)

Hmmm ... am I geekier because I enjoy being a geek? :D

12.62327% - Geekish Tendencies

This was pretty expected and it does help that i checked off 5 boxes for being a female. Most of the time all i could say was, what in the world does that mean.

I am 12.33456, Geekish tendencies. Complete surprise. I wonder who is a geek god...hmmm...

21.69625% - Geek. Yeah! Although, I think they should've had extra points for being a FIRSTaholic, and knowing what that stands for.

47.92899% - Super Geek woo!

My score pales next to some of yours...

26.23274% - Total Geek

11.43984% - Geekish Tendencies

looks like i didn't make the cut...:eek:

16.96252% - Geek

this is the second time i took it though... Dunno how I got less geeky.

34.31953% - Total Geek
I feel so special

56.21302% - Extreme Geek

boy am i suprised... i didnt think id get this high... especially for an ice hockey player:ahh:

if anyone remembers i actually had the three(actually 4 including the Zeroth law introduced in Foundation and Earth by Issac Asimov...) in my signature back in the day.
Zeroth law:
A robot may not injure humanity, or, though inaction, allow humanity to come to harm.
First law:
A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm, unless this would violate a higher order law.
Second law:
A robot must obey orders given it by human beings, except where such orders would confict with a higher order law.
Third law:
A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with a higher order law.

bonus points should go to anyone who can name the novel in which Issac Asimov created the term robots and the Laws or Robotics with out looking at anything...
Has anyone else read one or more of Asimov's novels on the robots or any Foundation novels? (this is a further testament to my geekiness)

How about extra bonus points for knowing that Asimov did NOT create the term "robot." The term (as applied to a mechanical assembly) was first popularized by Karel Capek, a Czech playwright, in his work "R.U.R." (Rossum's Universal Robots) in 1920. But credit for coining the term actually goes to his brother Josef, also a writer, who used the phrase to mean "an artifical peasant or serf."

The sad part is I didn't have to look up any of that...
