I'm not confusing anything, and there is a big difference between
theory and fact.
The fact is a bunch of people after squawking things like "WHAT?
YOU PEOPLE BELIEVE IN OWNING GUNS!!! I"M OUT OF HERE" WHAT? YOU
PEOPLE AREN'T ALL VEGETARIANS!!!! I"M OUT OF HERE!!" and a bunch of
other things went off and formed the transhumanist list and
announced it here.
You don't have to believe me check the archives.
Im my opinion attempting to usurp transhumanism after the fact,
since by definition Extropians are a subset of transhumanism.
