Well, thank you! Although I've never thanked anyone before for calling me a "wonk." It feels a little odd. ;)

I thought it might. This wonk thing seems like it is sort of new for you. I'm glad to be the first.

Ah, but how do I know when I really *am* a wonk? I feel unwonkworthy.

It should be easy to establish the criteria you need.
"I know I am a wonk when I find myself preferring to X instead of Y"
where X is something like reading/revising a policy document or whatever, and Y is something that you currently enjoy doing, like for me that would be seeing how many levels I can get through on the Wii Play Tank game.
