"you know  the type without me even having to say it,"Gary said,"the type who has to be encouraged to go out and play ...who feeles uncomfortable taking their clothes off in gym class...is it any wonder that this is the kind the studies hard...that compensates for their "lack of manliness" and "leadership abilities" by getting good grades and helping the less unfortunate..who else THEY gonna help? Huh..
THIS is the type that SOON ends up running things...
the very type
NOT MEANT to lead ends up RUNNING things...
ends up with all the money and the best looking women....
so they can "Produce" UPWARD...
this is the type who not only creates the future but advances it always in HIS favor..
can you imagine THIS type getting their hands on Computers? and what supposedly these computers will be able to do in just a few decades?
...we have to GET in their..in their and ON IT
Christ knows we have the money ..but

 THESE TYPES don't want to work with ME
maybe I remind them," Gary said to Ben,putting his hand around his thin build,his hand couldn't help but "size" this type" up,"maybe I remind them of the guy who used to stick their head in a toilet in high school"

Ben laughed and tried getting away from Gary's tight hand,Ben had made the mistake of following a girl with far away eyes into a Neuronatics Symposium...
and had been
cajoled into signing up for some classes
as 'the girl"
told him ,"I only date those "in "my circle"

her circle was Neuronautics..
his circle was
but not so much anymore what Gary Rainy called the 'smarty pants" types at Stanford

"that type will make you weak ben..
they feed on weakness.
I fed on your strengths Ben,"Gary Rainy had told him when they first had a private sit down,as Gary
was fascinated byan article Ben had written about the prospect of personal computers becoming a reality in OUR lifetime
