Subject: Roomate for EXTRO 5

Hello, Again, 

Rudi here.

I am thrilled to be attending the EXTRO 5 conference in San Jose on June 
15-17.  

Ray Kurzweil, Max More, and other folks who thought constructs are quite 
literally creating the future will be there.  

Most folks on this board are familiar with the Extropy Institute.  If you are 
not or even if you are, I would encourage you to go to Extropy.org and check 
on some of the more recent writings.  

The only disappointing thing to me about reading the Extropy writings is that 
some people are so much god damn smarter that me.  They have taken thoughts I 
have had in a fuzzy way, and nailed them to print with a crystalline 
precision that I admire (and, yes, even envy).   My only consolation is 
figuring that they are not quite as pragmatic or as knowledgeable about life 
insurance as I am.  But maybe they don't want to be:). 

But I digress from the purpose of this posting, which is to ask if any of you 
are going to the conference, and if you would like to share a room, and maybe 
a car rental.  

It is going to be a fascinating and fun party.  An intellectual orgy, of 
sorts.  (My term, not extro's)

Rather than gumming up cryonet with this personal issue, if you would like to 
email me at  I would be happy to respond.

I can't wait for the conference!  I am *really* excited about this, as I have 
wanted to go for some years now.  Hope to meet some or a bunch of you great 
people, including some who are happily life insurance clients of mine who I 
have yet to meet in person.
(Meatspace, in the vernacular.)

Rudi
