And our resident geek is ~~~drumroll~~~ **bluecanary**! Woo-hoo! ::flings confetti:: I believe **bluecanary** is a new face around here, too! Good job. **bluecanary** got 7/10 right, and perfect score was 452.00. Thanks all, and thanks **winterhawk11**! I came in 43rd, so it looks like I’m not a geek _or_ a nerd! 😃 ( **Swampy** is though! :p) Next one later tonight, after my husband goes to bed and gets off the computer. Poor baby has to work tomorrow, early. (Like 4:20 am!) \*\*1. bluecanary 420.00 \*\* 2. delphica 408.00 3. Windwalker 404.00 4. 42fish 402.00 5.

Sorry, the correct response is either ‘That’s as many as four tens!’ or ‘And that’s terrible!’ ---

I say computer programmer is an engineer. No one hires computer programmers. If you can’t design and maintain software, only code, which is strictly what a programmer does, you’re pretty much useless. ---

_Software_ engineer maybe interchangeable, but not simply ‘engineer’. ---
