“Prototypical Nerds”
Wired features an article about amateur radio (also called ham radio), which is also my hobby.
Hams are characterized as being "the planet's prototypical nerds". Next to that, the article mentions the Hamvention in Dayton. In Europe, a similar fair is the "Ham Radio" in Friedrichshafen, Germany. I've been there two or three times already and its really nice to catch up with the latest developments and experience the so-called ham spirit.
