I'm sometimes asked to give a soundbite definition of extropianism,
and find I never can. I was configuring the 'fortune' utility
on my workstation, and saw this, which is apropos:
"Any philosophy that can be put in a nutshell belongs there."
-- Sydney J. Harris
I don't know who Sydney Harris is, by the way. I simply found
this amusing.
-- "Here the ways of men part: if you wish to strive for peace of soul and pleasure, then believe; if you wish to be a devotee to truth, then inquire..." - Nietzsche Russell Earl Whitaker whitaker@sgi.com Webmaster, Silicon Junction Silicon Graphics, Inc.
