[ExI] Bryan & Kevin's exchange on technology

[Kevin Freels]

I never intended for this thread to go this far. I just wanted it to be known that I was revising my previous position in other posts that the oil would one day run out. I'm not entirely sure where you stand but it seems to me that you see oilless gasoline as impossible but you think the singularity can happen in the midst of world economic collapse and devolution of society. Never mind the fact that any AI that can bridge human death can probably find a way to make gasoline cheaper than drilling oil. 

Regardless of where you stand, I'm done with this thread. Its gone on far too long for what I wanted to accomplish and it's just adding noise to the list at this point. 

One thing I do want to give you Bryan is a small piece of advice. You are an extremely intelligent and knowledgeable person. Widen your focus a bit and learn some more about people. History, sociology, psychology, and anthropology would all do you some good. You have to understand that as a single human being you can't even manufacture the metal and glass needed to make a light bulb by yourself. No man is an island. 

Take care.
