<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> It was a whirlwind weekend. Thanks to Spike for being in such great spirits and managing the registration with exuberance and ease, and all the speakers, including some of our valued transhumanist friends on this list! In fact, I’d go so far to say we put the Extropy back in transhumanism/H+! What is that? Can-do attitude, intellectually stimulating, challenging limits, naughty humor, science fiction sophistication, daring ideas, balanced and good old-fashioned and relaxed camaraderie. <u></u><u></u></span></p>
