Nerd Score (time for bed)

I'm not terribly nerdy, but does it count if I used to be more so? I've got a Ph.D. and I used to play Dungeons and Dragons for hours, I swear. I even attempted to code up some "helpers" for my D&D games on our family's 1982 vintage IBM PC. Nonetheless, I am only moderately nerdy.

Found through no straight lines.

Other reasons I could be regarded as nerdy:
- well over 200 feeds in my aggregator
- number of programming languages used: 7 (basic, fortran, c, c++, lisp, prolog, visual basic for apps)
- first thing I want to know about software: is it customizable
