No, I didn't follow the link without thinking, which probably says more about me (and my geekishness) than if I had thoughtlessly followed the link.  Hence, my quote about being sheepish in admitting that I followed the link.

FWIW, if you are a certain type of person, like me, it was a cool link to follow.

For what it's worth I would have followed the link, too, then kicked myself when I realized the poster (me :) had quoted the whole thing already.  BC, we may both be nerds, but proud of it.  Sometimes I catch myself saying something, adding something arcane to a conversation, or recommending something that elicits "what?" looks.  Do you ever feel, in a private, unguarded moment, that you live in an alternate universe?  I do.  I have one friend, a very old friend, who gets what I mean.  We speak rarely.  Too  frightening, maybe.
