[extropy-chat] a futurist prediction

[Bret Kulakovich]

The-lets-beat-up-the-President-and-invalidate-each-other's-political- 
standing topic that has increased the signal-to-noise on this list by  
some sort of geometric amount of dB over the past several months.

Here's a 'prediction': One of us replies, others of us contradict,  
Iraq, idiot, killfile; lather, rinse, repeat. It's threadjacking run  
amok.

There are wonderful things going on out there, and things that are  
going to move us forward. While all the energy goes in, the thread  
bleeds into neighboring discussions, and good news is deadended. It's  
like yelling down a hole sometime.


I mean hey, ignore my post. The Flying Spaghetti Monster heard my  
plea no doubt =)
