<div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">Wow John Clark. I just rejoined this list after being away for a few years and silent for many. I am surprised, but not too surprised, to see all the old familiar names here. You used to give me major grief for my heretical (by extropian standards) views on Strong AI and digital uploading of consciousness. You are actually one of the reasons I stopped participating here. Even so, I hate to see you go!<br><br>-gts </div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Fri, Jan 22, 2021 at 8:50 AM John Clark via extropy-chat <<a href="mailto:extropy-chat@lists.extropy.org">extropy-chat@lists.extropy.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><font size="4">Assuming this makes it through the moderation and approval process that I must undergo this will be my last post to the Extropian List, my first was on September 29 1993. I will unsubscribe after this, it will be the first time in 28 years I have not been a member. It pains me to do this but even though He Who Must Not Be Named is no longer president I'm still under moderation and there is just no point in cluttering up my mailbox with posts that I can't respond to without a lot of red tape, besides the list has change so much in the last 4 years from being a bunch of logic loving free market libertarians (small l) that it once was I hardly recognize it anymore. Thanks everybody for decades of great discussions.
