People who want to quote me out of context already have plenty of ammunition. I say screw it.
Well... OK Then. I think my whole point was that you/we/the Singularity movement in general, needs to be prepared for an eventual use of quotes taken out of context. To be prepared for it.
I have no problem with outlining eventual goals, and their reasoning, even if it sounds insane (to an uneducated listener), yet it would be a good idea to have the groundwork prepared for such an eventuality. I was hoping that such groundwork was on someone's mind, is this the case?
I think you're right to point out how crazy this seems to outsiders. This website reads like nonsense to most people.
That's why FAQs and About pages and such should be written with newcomers in mind, and address the "Yes it sounds crazy, but here's why it might not be" question that they will first ask.
