I think my statement was not entirely accurate. I was never barred from social things. I just was shy and realized I did not really connect on any significant level with other kids my age. Ended up with a lot of angst as a young kid. I eventually had a few friends, but I never was very social by choice.
I went to private schools my whole life until college. So that's pretty sheltered.
Basically I was more interested in nuclear physics than dances, even back in grade school. Actually airplanes fascinated me since before I could talk.
What was the question again?
