Coming in late on this, I find myself baffled by what Natasha meant. Is
that sentence to be read as:<br><br>
A) I think it would be best if you respected (the communications already
sent to this list and published elsewhere regarding Extropy
Institute).<br><br>
Or<br><br>
B) I think it would be best if you (respected the communications already
sent to this list) and published elsewhere regarding Extropy
Institute.<br><br>
The second reading -- which is how I read it originally -- suggests that
he should go elsewhere with his opinions. Perhaps this was not
intended?</blockquote><br><br></span>
No you are incorrect. The first is the proper reading. I
think that if Dirk should reread what Max has written on the topic, and
the links Max provided in one of his posts about the topic in an
interview he did this year.<br><br></blockquote></div>I'm less interested in Max's views than about the scope for disagreement within ExI and here.<br>
