Absolutely no offense intended, but I personally would find it hard
to be 'appointed' to some list. I see it not as a priviledge, but more of a
rise from a larger gang into a smaller, more elite, gang. Why should my
opinion be so much more valuable than a newcomer's? I'm sure if they have
extropian views, they probably have something to say. I do agree with the
'lurk for awhile before you speak' regulation, that *enlightens* readers as
opposed to 'excommunicating' them.

Ingredi...
