And the bad news? :-)
Oh, don't get me wrong. I want to as rapidly as possible
evolve as revolutionarily as possible. It wouldn't
bother me for an instant to evolve into something so
advanced, so vast or wonderful that it doesn't resemble
me at all. That in fact, it wouldn't be me at all...
PROVIDED that I *also* continually maintain earlier
versions that really are "me" as I am now and as I
will be at each stage of the aforementioned ascent.
As the identity and uploading threads prove, people
simply cannot acknowledge that they can be doing
two things at once, be in two places at the same
time, and (perhaps at entirely different locations)
pursue two or move lives at the same time. But
enough of that on the identity threads.
Here it is enough to say that I look forward to
the most bizarre, strangest, and most wonderful
transformations that you can help me imagine
(while not giving up any of the things that the
current version likes to do!).
