I anticipate that if we had full Extropy archives all the way back to
ignition they would be chock full of all kinds of ridiculous ex cathedra
predictions. I realize 1) there's periodical archive destruction, perhaps
mercifully 2) no one reads the archives anyway, and if, the person has
dropped off the Net anyway, so there's little opportunity for
embarrassment. But still.
