The author of the page says this:

>>"Nor do they revolve around lack of technology. We can produce enough to
>>enable billions to live in ridiculous comfort. One must wonder why
>>transhumans emphasize so much that there will be more of all the things
>>that are not lacking in the first place."

I think he is right, here.

He also goes on to say that transhumanists are simply unfocused and
passively waiting for the Singularity, and that we would be better off
focusing our energies to acheive the acquistion of all knowledge, which
sounds good to me. But then in his webpage he says her is against all
change. THat seems contradictory to me; he is only 23 yo and so I doubt he
has any great insights to offer....but he does have some good insights on
the shortcomings of transhumanism.
