Actor/Actress with the Most Impeccable "Nerd" Credentials

There was an interview with someone with some sci fi cred, not a major player, back in the mid 90s so it's probably exponentially more true today now that nerd culture has gone mainstream

I don't remember who it was but I still remember the quote

Basically this:

"There is no love like geek love. If you are a panelist at any of these events you are getting laid as much as any athlete or rock star. And you may have an idea of what these nerd girls are like. You are wrong. There are a ton of drop dead gorgeous women who are into this nerd shirt"
