This all grew out of a couple extended discussions I had with Eliezer, Will and Divia.

Sam Bhagwat to Eliezer, William, Divia

Eliezer, Will, Divia,

I wrote a couple of posts based on our discussions. I tried to post them; however, I lack 20 karma points. Do any of you have the power to just magically give me those points? If not, I quickly posted seven relatively banal comments. If you all upvote all of them, that will give me 21 karma.

Thanks, Sam

Actually, I just upvoted the two posts, since I can see the drafts. 10 points each = problem solved, I hope.
