That works for me with the stipulation that one decides to kookify or glorify based not on previous postings but only on those postings after the system is in place. I have read and learned much in the past year, but if I looked back, I fear I would slip deep into the kooky range. {8-[

Newbies could be alowed a couple months after first post, or twenty free posts before they are kookified. This would have helped me too, as I was introduced to extropians thru a wildly cool ideas futures game on the web, by Anders I think. For some time, I thought extropians was an extension of, or somehow directly related to, ideas futures. So, I misunderstood.

Cheerfully I report feeling somewhat less kooky now, although not yet exactly glorious. {8^D spike
