Here is what the List of Lists says about us.
Does it need updating?
The maintainer is arielle@taronga.com (Stephanie da Silva).
Purpose: Extropians is devoted to the discussion and development
of Extropian ideas. The term "Extropian" was coined by the publishers
of the journal "Extropy", which is devoted to Extropian philosophy.
This list is a spinoff of the journal. Extropians may be roughly
described as those simultaneously interested in anarchocapitalist
politics, cryonics (and other life extension techniques), the
technological extension of human intelligence and perception,
nanotechnology, spontaneous orders, and a number of other related
ideas. If you are an Extropian, the concept that these are all
related topics will seem natural.
All Extropians (and those who suspect that they are Extropians)
are invited to join. The list is run from a commercial site and
to strictly cover costs there is a fee charged to join the list,
$14 per year (less for ExI member and Journal subscribers and
students). A 30 day free-trial is given to all subscribers.

educational foundation, send mail to exi-info@extropy.org or write
