michael, for fear of reigniting the guns virus which ate us alive for several weeks,
ill refrain from commenting, but heres one thats extropian thread related: i was
at an extropians outing a few months ago and met a man who counsels people
on how to extend their lives. one of the things we discussed was what kind of
car to drive. (!) i was mildly embarrassed as i was on a motorcycle at the time,
not the optimal vehicle for one who wishes to live long and prosper. i bought
an f250 pickup, all the better to survive an accidental impact... {8^D spike
