Brian's perfectly right. I'm not a representative extropian; in fact, I
don't think I'd call myself an extropian at all (I'm a transhumanist in the
typical Australian mold, which is far too soft-centered for most of the
people on this list). Go to Max More's Principles. (Max is the first among
the extropian principals.)
And please don't call me `Mr Broderick'. As they say in the movies, that's
my father. I'm Damien. If you feel an overwhelming impulse to be
punctilious and polite (and you certainly shouldn't, he farted musically),
it's...
