Body Language differences between geeks and normals

I had a look for the essay I mentioned after frisbee last night, and couldn't find it. Right after I'd sent a request for help off to the LMB list, I remember what search terms I needed to use and found it.

I can't remember everyone who wanted it, so I'm posting it here. I did not write this and take no credit for it whatsoever. Also, it's cut straight from the email. Oh, and remember it's American.

Body Language differences between mundanes and fen )

There were further comments in the thread, but most of them had to do with examples and I'm sure we can all come up with plenty of our own. I find the second half to be more relevant and I wonder what differences there are for tv show or movie based fans. I know I picked up the use of 'shiny' to describe something good from Firefly, but I don't know what other differences there would be.
