I would hate to see real GeekSpeak then.
My version of tech talk: Ring ring, hello computer nerd, can you come fix my computer ASAP? Later: Oh, thank you so much.

But doesn't that go against the OK tradition of being self sufficient? 
We know you're really eating up all that "great" content on RB's Tech Thread...
You just don't want to admit it! |

It used to be that my version of high tech (before the 90s) was to pick up the phone and say...
"Hello, Sara, could you get me the diner please? I need to speak with Barney."

It's good to be self sufficient, but it is also accepted to admit you know nothing and need help.  |

Okay, starting tomorrow I will be deleting off topic posts in many threads. I hate to do this, but it is part of my job.

And me too. Sorry folks, it's just part of the TOS. And I have been guilty if not more so than anyone else! If you want to gab about anything, please do so in the sticky we have for that purpose.
Merry Christmas everyone!
