DC's 'Revenge Of The Nerds'
Three cheers for Revenge of the Nerds, the hottest new monthly high-tech happy hour in the nation's capital. The event, held Monday night on the chic second floor of Darlington House in Dupont Circle, attracted a diverse crowd of tech lobbyists, journalists, PR pros, philanthropists, grassroots activists and others. The gathering's invitation asked: "Could you possibly turn off your BlackBerry (or other fine consumer electronics device), deactivate your left brain and get a little geeky among friends?" Indeed, and the smooth tunes of the Kevin Cordt Quartet helped! Hat tip to hosts Jenny Toomey of the Ford Foundation, Public Knowledge President Gigi Sohn, Consumer Electronics Association Vice President Michael Petricone and the rest of the "nerds."
