Why do you suppose this? Do you think we are oblivious to the perceptions 
of others? Have you not noticed the evolution in language we use? (Compare 
the Principles of Extropy 3.11 with the prior Extropian Principles for an 
example.)  Your assumption puzzles me. Either you think us quite 
unreasonable, OR you've gotten too deep into "The Ayn Rand Cult" and your 
perceptions are being colored through its lens.

Suggestions for improvements are ALWAYS welcome and given genuine 
consideration.
