I am me. With that position comes certain responsibilities. I am a
student of the Singularity - not learning *from*, learning about. I'd
say I was dissecting the Singularity under the microscope, if I thought
it was possible. Reverence is evil because then you never know the
truth, and I've got to know the truth.
