The Geek Shall Inherit The Earth

There's the famous saying, "Be nice to geeks, cause someday you're going to work for one!"
That's very very true. Think of the difference between old school companies and new, high tech companies.
Whereas in many cases they both started in a Garage (Henry Ford, the Wright Brothers, The Guys from HP, Apple) the type of people who started those machines are very different.
However, they both have one thing, one major thing, in common. CREATIVITY.

This is clever. It's inside baseball. It's all the things that the Fellowship of the Geek like (unless you're part of the HATE BLOG subculture, in which, you're not reading this anyway and I really don't care).

But most of all, it's creative.

IMHO creativity is looking at some 'thing', be it technology, process, nature, people, whatever, and you put a twist to it that no one has seen or thought of. That, by itself, isn't enough to make something 'creative'. To make it creative, its got to be 'gotten'. (get it?)
People, even if it's a small group of nerds, will look at it and go 'Dude!! Why didn't I think about that??"
Nowadays, Geeks do that better than anyone.
