    Amara, I have experienced this type of "positioning" many times, but not
    necessarily on this list. I have on other transhumanists. One such way is
    deliberately claiming that a person or an organization is of one political
    persuasion regardless of the fact that ExI is not supporting or promoting
    any one political agenda. We support and promote our principles of the
    philosophy. This is very frustrating. While I have never been apologized
    to, I leave that door open. Regardless, I will not stand by and let anyone
    on this list be positioned inappropriately.

    I think it is about time Ron or anyone who deliberately misrepresents you
    apologize now.
