I have to concur with Uncle Robin's posting. I actually met my wife BEFORE I became a geek, but she has seen how happy I am when I "geek out" in my office or with my friends. She does not always understand when I get on a soap box & launch into a speech about this or that, but she asks questions some questions and makes me feel like what I'm saying is important (even though she may not give a flying ratts butt about the birth of the Net or why the OSS movement is so cool). The long and the short of it is that she accepts me for who I am and what I have become and that makes her the best wife in the whole world. Nuff said!
