is there extropian thought to be found in popular
entertainment? i nominate the following:

music: what a beautiful world this will be (~1983, artist unknown)

movies: contact, or 2001 a space odyssey

literature: ?

television: six million dollar man?

where are the earliest forms of extropian thought
to be found in popular entertainment? wizard of oz, because
the tin man had mechanical parts in place of his
original biological ones?

what are the current winners? (i am out of
touch with current pop entertainment...) spike
