You might be a geek if:

Your goofy Web site turns out to have real-world scientific applications...

You wonder, too, where the hell the flying cars we were promised are...

You’re actually disappointed Google turned out to be evil after all...

You’re already planning a trip...

You think this totally looks like a Babel fish...

Beloved Google?!? Baaaawww!!! Waaaaahhhh!!! That's it, I'm moving to a colony on Mars. No place on earth (literally) is going to be safe anymore. Except maybe Greenland, and even then I have doubts if one is not blonde.

Don't panic. Here's good examination of why what Google is doing isn't so bad: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/4654014.stm Results are censored here in the U.S. too, ya know, thanks to the good ol' DMCA. Do a search on Google for "xenu" and scroll down to the bottom of the first page if you don't believe me.
