Personally, I find that I feel perhaps even more lonely when I talk to people who don't understand what I do. Going out for a beer with "normal people" doesn't help with the loneliness of having ideas which no one else understands. I feel that one of the main motivations/actions of an inventor is to try to communicate their ideas with others. I feel like my entire job is to live in a dream world, and to try to bring that dream world to the real world. So my entire job is spent mostly totally alone in a world that doesn't even exist, and that no one can visit.
