Funk Babblings

OK, maybe saying yes to tygerdsebat above was a mistake. :-/

At risk of confirming your impressions of me, I'll wade in and respond to this....

I'm sorry but reading this write up makes you come across as stuck up.

Nobody forced you to read it. There are plenty of other blogs around for you to read if you don't like mine.

Through out it you constantly needed to reiterate out you're smarter than the person talking or the people trying to learn.

Sorry, I don't see that. The closest I see is that I mentioned that I was familiar with the material in the first one (and didn't mind). I see nothing about me being "smarter" than anyone.

your intelligence doesn't mean anything unless you're willing to share it.

Maybe you'd appreciate my various geeky entries and related activities more than most of my usual readers.

To your reference about getting the information on the net somewhere, you can do that with almost everything. Oh and the link you posted was to the guy's own site (I'm not sure if that was the point or not).

Ding ding! Two out of two!

I'm sure if you mingled a bit and talked to some of the speakers after thier talks (rather then walk out)

You must've missed the part where I left to have dinner with (among others) four of the speakers I'd just listened to. (And another who would do her talk the next day.) And greatly enjoyed that dinner experience. If nothing else, the part about "new friends I'd made" should have indicated something.

and proceeding to let the world know about it on your blog.

Because personal blogs are *never* supposed to be about letting the world know your thoughts, eh? Especially on a site called LiveJournal.
