Know what's even worse? An army of illiterate extropic fundamentalists. I
agree; this thread is dead and it's time to kill it. Everything "could" put
a crimp in everything else; we live in an entangled world where anything can
suddenly kill us at any time. That's what prioritized risks are for. I say
let's go back to discussing Leon Kass or Bill Joy.
