I had to meet with an intern today and during the intern kick-off meeting the presenter, a self-proclaimed 'technical weenie', played the Dilbert video entitled "The Knack" which some of you fellow nerds and geeks have probably already seen. Here it is for those of you who don't know what "the knack" is.

Doctor: "I'm afraid your son has the Knack."

Dilbert's Mom: "The Knack??"

Doctor: "The Knack - It's a rare condition characterized by an extreme intuition about all things mechanical and electrical, and other social ineptitude."

Dilbert's Mom: "Can he lead a normal life?!"

Doctor: "No, he'll be an engineer."
