Can one be a geek/nerd without math/science/tech skills?

Advertisements [?]

I have 23 library books out on literature, history, theology and mythology, I've studied the Star Wars prequel trailers with the intensity Oliver Stone did the Zapruder film, and had something of a religious experience while watching "The Fellowship of the Ring."

And yet I have no interest in math, science or gadgets. I don't even know what an ipod is.

Do I qualify for geek status?
