This post reminds me of the talk at this year's H+ summit by Robert Tercek. Amongst other things, he was pointing out how the PR battle over transhumanist issues was already lost in popular culture, and that the transhumanists were not helping matters by putting people with very freaky ideas in the spotlight.

I wonder if there are analogous concerns here.
