Then you can even go further and do a Blizzcon of Nerds or a Comicon of Nerds. But a general mix of nerds could simply be a Con of Nerds. And lets face it, if we specify what kind of Con the gathered group are, we can better study their social interactions.<BR/><BR/>Do a Blizzcon of Nerds have higher social abilities than a StarTrekcon? <BR/><BR/>What are the mating rituals of the average Comicon? <BR/><BR/>How many individual nerds are members of different Cons? And do they have the ability to understand each other's lingo?<BR/><BR/>Does a Con of Nerds use a set lingo or do they bring in special lingo from the different Cons of which they are a part?<BR/><BR/>I am sure there is a federal grant just waiting to be written for such a study.<BR/><BR/>But only if they are named a Con of Nerds.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03139554366028212818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4812930407718856652.post-31091357905979078212008-08-29T16:00:00.000-07:002008-08-29T16:00:00.000-07:00I rather like 'conclave' and 'array.'
