"high-tech mecca".

Just out of curiosity, do y'all have to kneel on a mousepad and pray in
the direction of this place, or just sorta wave a pocket protector in
its general direction, or what? I have a few acquaintances in the
high-tech sector, and I'd hate to offend them by farting in the wrong
direction or something. And is there any way to politely inquire about
your faith at cocktail parties and other gatherings. I mean, it's all
well and good to walk up to someone and ask, "So, are you a Jew (or
Catholic or Biblebeater or whatever)?," but I'm not sure of...um,
er...is it "high-techies?" Which brings up another thing - what's the
proper term for people of y'alls faith? High-techies? Techies?
Hightechmeccies? Morons?

TIA!

PS - can your people eat pork, drink, swear, **** (or dance) and other
fun stuff or are y'all sorta like Sunday-morning Baptists, but with
Microsoft certs and caffeine jitters?
