Extropian Principles 3.0: Please comment on new version draft

I have just finished a draft of the new version (3.0) of The Extropian
Principles. The number of principles has grown from five to seven and I've
made some alterations.

Please given me constructive criticism on this draft. The Principles define
Extropianism and serve as a focal point for others to figure out what we
are all about. Having numerous minds pick it over looking for ways of
improving it should produce a better result than if I do it alone.

This *is* a first draft of version 3.0, so there should be plenty of places
where the writing could be improved. My goal is to accurately and *clearly*
communicate our shared values and attitudes. Another goal in this version
is to slightly tone down the style so that it feels more sober, but without
losing all of its original spirit.

Feel free to use Foresight Institute's Critserver to make comments, or send
me mail, or post to the List. If you send me private mail, be sure to
address it to <more@extropy.org> since I'm in the process of dropping my
Primenet account.

Onward!

Max
