Old transhumanists never die, they just download.  Hey cool, if you guys
ever need to have a virtual online funeral for me, just assume I downloaded.
And I am watching you from the ether.  Have we ever had a virtual online

Unless I can becometh Anders or Damien or Amara, that might be cool.  Their
brains, my attitudes.  What a combination that would be.  {8^D  spike
