Dear Kennita,

Don't know if you read my complete exposition. But as a
scientist, (although specialized, having a strong generallist
characteristic - almost ecological, since the environmental phenomena
may be treated using other points of view... although not always so
clean or precise...) I simply *know* that lots of my black
friends (and not only in Brazil...) would love a lot to change their
external appearance (and lots of them will just admit when it will
be disposable for them... if not, or will have any psychological
problem to be solved or will be influenced by any of the memes like
religion, communism, etc., or will have no money to get the
treatment, in a first moment...). It is just an individual option,
that they do not have yet.... And... if it depend*ed* on just the
"smart" racists, they would never get it...

Friendly Hugs,

Gomes

******* I said "lots of" and not "all". Indeed, If someth happens to
me that would change my external appearance, or even the science
would discover a treatment that would make me feel much better
externally - like the recent discovery of the white hair gene... of
course I will use a treatment to keep (make) my hair, or skin, or
anything (hehehe) much better, when I get old or not- when we feel
good internally, we "may" better (and freely) treat the external too
(and, I repeat, I consider the process something recursive...).
(Anyway, I am free of religious memes, like the christians that
consider that "suffering like Jesus did..." tchan!.. (poor
good-intentioned boy...but certainly there were worse suffers...-
for the sados..) will buy them a stairway to heaven (sorry dear Page
and other Zeps, for the mix (hehehe)...). If you have been following
the discussions, have noticed that we, the most free, less
preconceptous and advanced minds on the list, are foreseeing even
the substitution of the *whole brain* ... and you do no think it
wouldn't be improved, dont you? (obviously keeping the
individualities...) Now, when after all this, we simply read racist
or preconceptual confused interpretations, you can imagine how
"angry" we get... ( If it weren't the market/commercial reasons (do
not kill yourselves, those who still are innocent poor
babies...hehehe) I'd say simply: yes, keep on being as you want (not
personal, just general...) just do not perturb! (of course I'd also
think: must be crazy...)
