I wonder if there exists anything one might call a transhuman technology
mutual fund? I've been keeping up with Nanothinc's Nanoportfolio at
http://www.nanothinc.com/NanoVentures/WhatsNew/nanoport.html and
conducted a cursory Web search for relevant info, but as yet, I've hit a
dead-end. In general, from a short-term perspective, it may be a good
time to get into tech stocks since the market correction these past few
weeks. Of course, for the long-term, there's a pile of money to be made
in such stocks (money which would expand the ole' future light cone
so-to-speak.)

I'd appreciate any info from those in the know.
