Back off, man! We're computer scientists!

The New Times LA reports on the Geek Squad, a bunch of geeks who are (at least pretending to be) taking themselves too seriously.

According to the literature, a Geek Squad agent belongs to "an elite tactical unit of highly trained and highly mobile individuals who seek and destroy villainous computer activity. These individuals have banded together and have sworn to rid the earth of inferior computer behavior." As far as I'm concerned, that means taking out Bill Gates. But that's only an opinion and definitely not today's mission.
