Seriously though, I've noticed the same trend not only in geekdom but also
in other places too. I rowed for my university back in Northern Ireland
where 90% of my crewmates were taking technical or professional degrees, it
was very much the exception that club members were studying liberal arts or
humanities etc. Approx 35% of the uni's students were studying arts. Just
different mindsets I guess....

Subject: About this reminiscing about old sci fi...
I have a theory about geeks and sci fi. I think it has less to do with
intelligent plotlines and more to do with geeks being the hero, saving the
world, getting the girl.
Technocracy is a beautiful thing.
