I'll concede I over spoke myself. I was taking a counter-postion as a way of
eliciting a clarification of your position. Thanks. :-)I think it would be useful
PR, if on the bottom of all of the postings to the Extropian-open list we have
information regarding the details of subscribing to NodeNet and joining ExI. Alex
Future Bokov had something similar on the bottom of the transhuman list regarding
cloning.
