Here's one pretty darn good reason: I was recently in NYC giving a talk at manTRANSforms Conference. Several speakers reved up the audience with doom and gloom. While I've been chipping away at the resistance to transhumanity for years, it apparent now, more than ever, that we need to strategize. Loud voices are ringing out a salvo to the tune of global warming, globalization, GEO, techno utopianism, etc. Strategizing how to deal with the mounting angst toward megatechnology requires more than one discipline and more than one skill. We need all your ideas and suggestions at Extro-5. If you haven't signed up yet, please click here: http://www.extropy.org/ex5/index.htm See you there!
