[extropy-chat] ANNOUNCE: Extropy Institute's Future

[A B]

Hi Amara,
   
  I certainly respect anyone's right to privacy. However, I think it would be counterproductive to hide or destroy *all* of the old archives. A good solution would be to hide any specific posts that the post author requests to remain undisplayed, if this can be achieved.
   
  Best Wishes,
   
  Jeffrey Herrlich

It's not hard for me to remember today, because alot of it is still
true. Many of those discussions could today still jeopardize contracts,
careers and personal lives. I wish to remember those discussions in
our private living rooms, not in a public Internet venue.
