This is quite true.

My book is _Create/Recreate: The 34rd Millennial Culture_ and it is the second edition, and now has more essays and less images. I spent one year working on various essays, several of which pertain to transhumanist culture.
While my Transhuman Timeline pertains to events which were precursors to our transhumanity, it along with my chapter "Transhuman History" is quite pertinent and I suggest that you all buy a copy and read it.
Transhumanism and extropian transhumanism do have a history and that history is still being written.
