Thanks for the link.  Interesting reading.  The last paragraph caught my
eye.  Here Hugo says, "...I foresee a major war between two human groups,
the "Cosmists", who will favor building artilects, for whom such an
activity is a science-compatible religion, and the big-picture destiny of
the human species - and the "Terrans"..."

The same ideological conflict idea has been stated many times by many of
us, but using different "titles/names" for the two disparaging groups.
Primo Posthuman will be addressing this in 2005.

Best,
Natasha
