I firmly believe that we can see further because we stand on
the shoulders of giants.
I have little faith in my generation's ability to make any
significantly radical technological advancement, so my only
hope is to produce offspring equipped with as much ability
as I can to hopefully do better.
It's likely that I won't become truly transhuman, but maybe
my kids will have the opportunity ...
