[extropy-chat] the self identity quest - reply to Jef

[Russell Wallace]

I'll add: if you haven't got a single person on extropy-chat of all places
to believe this literally constitutes personal survival, you won't get
anyone anywhere to believe it :) You're better off to put the spin that it's
metaphorical immortality through one's works - that's a familiar enough
concept. Sort of the digital equivalent of getting a statue of yourself.

But the thing about statues is, they get done because people think they look
cool. So go ahead and create a digital monument to yourself, and do it in
such a way that it looks cool - nice site layout and suchlike. Then point
people to it and say "wouldn't you like one of these for yourself?"
