Under your earlier propositions in which Earth's trade has been reduced to
AIs, operating solely in say ecological and ethical /neuronal relationships,
how will Earth convince these aliens (Ferrengis- sp?) to join in meaningful
dispositions? This isn't a trick question and I hope you have the answer.
For example, will our communication nets be so open and persuasive as to
absorb and convince all comers to give freely?
