And actually, my comments were not directed at Rajev for making the
statement. They were directed at someone named "thebearwitchproject"
(apparently using their child's account to log into what should be a
more professional level mailing list) about his comments.

Rajev, you are fine. Don't worry about it. The other writer, who only
served to waste our time with his post, must have felt insulted
himself and doesn't know that those of us who have been here for a
while throw the word "geek" around plenty, just like the examples I
gave of use in the commercial world.

Just feel free to ask your questions and I'm sure one of us geeks
would be happy to help you out.
