This is why I'm glad to see the old guard boy's club fading into a memory, despite the loss of skills that we may never see again as a culture. It's a mixed blessing.
The "old guard boy's club" has been around a long time, and is still around. The gatekeeping/exclusionary mindset cannot die off fast enough as far as I am concerned. Unfortunately, it won't. Where ever nerds of a culture gather, there you will find them. The old guard. Arms crossed. Legs akimbo. Judging you not worthy. Thinking they are cleverer than you because they read some obscure fact on a usenet group.
