Um, I don't actually have a Singularity list, although it's a good idea. I have a Singularitarian list, which isn't the same thing - it's only appropriate after you've decided that you definitely want a Singularity and you're interested in opportunities to create one. There isn't exactly a lot of debate about, say, Asimov Laws.
