'Nerd Girls': Brilliant, beautiful babes who build stuff

Here's a new show that could bring the dreams of geeks everywhere a step closer to reality. "Nerd Girls" from producer-director Paola Di Florio is about "a team of knockout brainiacs who are changing the world," one engineering problem at a time.  The show is based on a real club at Tufts University, where ladies come to play ... with soldering irons. The trailer shows the stiletto-clad Nerd Girls working on solar cars, FPGAs and infra-red doggy doors. 

Every week, in answer to viewer emails, the girls will hop in the Nerd van and seek out those with the most pressing technical and scientific issues to resolve.

Also, they will talk about boys. 

"Sometimes boys are intimidated by girls being engineers," said the FPGA programmer, as Pink's "Stupid Girls" playedin the background. "But I don't care."

"When you say, 'I'm an engineer,' and they're not fazed by it," added the sizzling dorkette pictured above, "it kind of shows that they can handle that intelligence."

I can handle it.  Hey, I've even got the name of the TV version, if the producers want it:  America's Next Top Nobel.
