Nerd pride
     
         The Nerd Pride movement, modeled on the Gay Pride
        movement, was started at {MIT} by Professors {Gerald Sussman}
        and {Hal Abelson}.  Nerd pride paraphernalia includes baseball
        hats, buttons and - of course - pocket protectors.
     
        "My idea is to present an image to children that it is good to
        be intellectual, and not to care about the peer pressures to
        be anti-intellectual.  I want every child to turn into a nerd
        - where that means someone who prefers studying and learning
        to competing for social dominance".
