Precisely.
There have been and there will be transhuman groups that start up over the
years. Some of them phase out, others remain or change. Extropy Institute
is so well known as a spearheading transhumanist organization and confident
of its future in the universe that I wouldn't think this issue is a problem.
Actions often speak louder than words.
