Ah - perhaps there is a danger here, though. Just as gays are seen as having lots of money (throwback to the hatred of jews perhaps?) this idea that geeks are becoming social elites could be continuing a trend of "reasons to hate geeks," along with we make lots of money and have all the power to destroy the banks, bla, bla...
Here are three very basic questions that can be asked of any art and provide one test of the "worthiness" of that piece:
1. What was the artist trying to say?
2. How well the did artist say it?
3. Was it worth saying?
Got this from my Theatre 101 class back in 1993...
