<DIV>> Wil McCarthy ... His views on the forthcoming (or not?) Singularity
sre similar to my own: "And while the world on the other side of that event may
look very different from the world of today, my personal prediction is that
<SPAN style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: rgb(153,255,153)">we'll still see ourselves in
it, with habits and motives largely unchanged</SPAN>. The desire for comfort,
for wealth, for entertainment and novelty and pleasure... these things will
never go away. We'll just be richer, more powerful and wiser for our troubles.
And what, exactly, is wrong with that?"<BR><A
