That's good! :beer:

I think it's a cultural thang. Those imbued with technical acumen are said to be geeky. I, for one, do not see 'geek' as a dirty word. I guess I can relate, on my own level, to this level of attention of which we speak. The difference I guess is that, on average, most of use apply some level of detail to eating each and every day to survive. A TV left to entropy, will still flash away in the corner feeding our daily soma holiday without any attention at all, save the few of us that feel that intrinsic call to 'fix' what we see as lacking. If tweaking were a necessary activity for survival, they'd all be doing it!

I think it's a noble drive to want to improve that around us .. that which the masses are happy to trod by each day without note. Whether that be improving a beautiful gobble dish, or rewiring an old GPS.

Intrinsic sense of curiosity+drive to improve+fruitful research+energy expended+[lost time+decrease in bathing habits+coffee+++
