I'm watching this dialogue now, I'm 45 (of 73) minutes in. I'd just like to remark that:

Eliezer is so nice! Just so patient, and calm, and unmindful of others' (ahem) attempts to rile him.
Robert Wright seemed more interested in sparking a fiery argument than in productive discussion. And I'm being polite here. Really, he was rather shrill.

Aside: what is the LW policy on commenting on old threads? All good? Frowned upon?

It's pretty much okay. If there is a recent "Sequence rerun" thread about in in Discussion, then the discussion should happen there instead, but otherwise there's no particular issues.
