Hi Simon,
I was hoping to get you material today, but I am swamped at work and need
to get on the highway in a few hours. I thought about you last night and
probably should have done this at 5:30 when I woke.

Pro-Act is currently focusing on research and development (R&D) for the
transhumanist culture. We are looking at the various organizations and
groups and pinpointing what each one has been doing and better ways we can
work together to accomplish definitive goals. Our R&D shows that there is
much overlapping of projects which is thinning out support, interest and
accomplishment. We are also looking at the basic growth of transhumanism
and the tipping points and wild cards as they have come up over the past 20
years.
In order for Pro-Act to produce viable information and representation of
the transhumanist culture, we have been investing more of our time in R&D.
We hope to produce a smart public relations reference for businesses who
are interested in learning more about transhumanism, speakers, learning
systems, etc. We also want to make sure that the orginal concepts and the
initial goals of transhumanity are documented accurately and available to
the public.
Pro-Act’s R&D is looking at 4 issues today; biotechnology (including
reproduction and life extension); environmental issues (including new
technologies); ideological complexity (including the many political systems
around the world and ways to be inclusive rather than exclusive of
worldwide human interests and human rights); and the socio-architectual
future of engineering sustainability .
