If I run across any of you guys once I move back home to the NoVA area, I'll be sure to give a head nod. That being said, if I got a thumbs up first I'd probably wave or something.
Dude, it's not odd unless you think a thumbs up is anything more than a gesture. It's just a convenient way of saying awesome without having to stick your head out of the window and yelling. Anywhere else but the road, yeah, a little creepy.
