Would it be possible for you to send me the original data with the comments/justifications attached/ I'm interested in doing a side-by-side comparison with Kurzweil's own analysis of his predictions.

Most of the assessments didn't have comments or justifications (maybe about 1/4 did). I think the assessors would feel uncomfortable having those published (some are in very informal style). And, as I said, it wouldn't be a fair or systematic assessment - the comments weren't intended for that purpose.

I am only one of the contributors, but you're welcome to view my comments. I doubt it will be helpful for your purpose, though.

I'll see what I can do with them. It may be useful, even if I can only do a partial comparison.
