RE: What Are Writing Skills?

As Bruce said:
And, as a general comment, I would like to say that the idea that geeks 
as a group are antisocial is a stereotype that I would like to see 
buried and forgotten.


I agree and add:
There is a big difference between antisocial and introverted. Technical
and scientific people (for our purposes, 'geeks') tend to be introverted
(internally motivated); whereas antisocial people dislike socializing
with other people.

People who are antisocial exist, but it is not accurate to equate that
behavior with 'geeks'.

On a personal note, I find it a lot easier to deal with introverts than
socially 'slick' people who possibly populate HR, Marketing and Sales
departments ;-D
