I see. For an Italian cultured mother-tongue speaker, this is still
understandable, but he would find Latin phrase more usual...

By the way, are you the same Damien Broderick of *Outside the Gates of
Science<http://www.amazon.com/Outside-Gates-Science-Time-Paranormal/dp/1560259868/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1204582746&sr=1-2>
*, which I have finished just minutes ago? Because near the end there are a
few transhumanist references, and I have a vague recollection of having
heard it mentioned on some list or other...

If you are, congratulations. A very disconcerting and well-researched book.
I personally switched from blind, albeit strictly materialistic, faith in
psi when I was a teenager, to skepticism, back to the general impression
that some more in-depth and/or large scale research would be in order.
