In an AP story just out Dan Sarewitz weighs in on whether or not Obama is a geek:

Dan Sarewitz, a professor of science and society at Arizona State University, said calling Obama a geek is unfair both to the president-elect and geeks.

”He’s too cool to be a geek; he’s a decent basketball player; he knows how to dance; he dresses well,” Sarewitz said. ”It’s too high a standard for geeks to possibly live up to.”

Happy holidays to all of our readers!!
