Remember what the first step must accomplish. It must lift the NSPIC from
the minds of those who enforce the NSPIC. It's slow work!
Almost everybody enforces NSPIC. I find it really amazing that most people
don't realize they're doing it. That makes NSPIC self-enforcing. It's not a
matter of people at the top of a heiarchy enforcing it, but a matter of
everybody doing it to each other.
I agree. I think this is even more important when you consider
how many "adults" have the intellectual capacity of a 10-year old.
If we want civilization to *seriously* extropically evolve, it will require
having a larger number of people (dare I say "mainstream populace?")
gaining a greater understanding of the types of things discussed on this
list.

How many people on this list saw the episode of "King of the Hill" where
Peggy has to teach a sex-ed class? What amazed me about this episode was the
topic of the average person's ignorance was explored on a mainstream
television show.
If this can't be done the destruction of Ingrid will cause terrible loss
and retribution.

What is "Ingrid"?
The time required to implement AND to identify the barriers to
understanding NSPIC AND
to outline the benefits gained from understanding and transcending NSPIC
IS BEST
SERVED BY identification of a series of steps to transcend NSPIC USING
the Freeware
called The Ingrid Thought Processor.
Again, what the hell is Ingrid? Someone also briefly mentioned that it
wasn't available for the Mac. Why are a lot of people on this list so
wrapped up with it?
We have a list policy against debating "the basics", and it sounds like
Legg and Burt are interested in supporting government intervention in
private business relationships. We just got finished with a round of this
with our Dutch friends, but at least they were reasonably open-minded.
Reading the rants of Burt and Legg makes me doubt that there is much
chance of a satisfactory outcome.

So far, the debate seems to be getting off track. I'm beginning to wonder if
something useful will come out of it.
