Incidentally, I think most companies are after Morlocks! Although they are not as gullible as they used to be so getting them to march to the tunes we play is becoming more and more difficult.

Best.

A lot of what I, and many others, get excited about is in that "boring" category. I have no problem being a Morlock ;)

And, you know, using the phrase "boring" is also a good Rorschach-diction test of what people you're talking with think.

In summary, when I use the word "boring" to describe something in IT, I don't mean "boring" in the real-world sense ;) The fact that I use the phrase "IT" to describe the category of "stuff computers do" pretty much puts me into the Eloi-eater category as well ;)

Look at yourself, and all the other pale, bearded geeks. In the distant future, we will go underground, maintaining the machinery, emerging only to get Mountain Dew and eat stupid blond people.

In the book, the Eloi are as subhuman and vapid as Paris Hilton; I don’t think it’s millions of years off, it’s maybe next century.

That would be Paris Hilton.
