Just wanted to state that for the record. Mendelian genetics.. nerd, nerd, nerd. SUPER nerd. :P Oh, you are WAY nerdier than I. Just wanted to state that for the record.

Mendelian genetics.. nerd, nerd, nerd. SUPER nerd. :P

For the record, my parents both have dorkiness in them. HOwever, the gene that controls your dork percentage has multiple alleles with many phenotypes. Unlike other trait expression dork/nerd/geek phenotype expression is not mutually exlusive. So homozygous expression of one phenotype in parents is not always a clear indication of the expected outcome. If simple mendelian genetics can't figure it out, It's unlikely a simple test could. :P Hey, I didn’t write the test.
