ZM,

I don't want to see daily commentary on current events -- god knows there's plenty of that out there already. But the readership might benefit from seeing Eliezer's mode of analysis trained upon something outside his somewhat narrow range of interests. The blog is called "Overcoming Bias," after all; I'm fairly sure there are ways to improve our thinking and "overcome bias" in domains other than the Singularity, AI, etc. If anything, some broadening of scope (without sacrificing analytical rigor) might attract a larger audience, many of whom currently may be getting turned off by the strong whiff of sci-fi geekdom that pervades most of Eliezer's posts. Just a thought.
