    I was all warmed up today to do some serious debunking of
    bad ideas, and sure enough, a few posts offered up some
    choice pickings. But no sooner ON AT LEAST THREE OCCASIONS
    had I decided to shoot down a serious misconception or faulty
    idea than I found that someone had beat me to it.

    Part of my enjoyment of this list comes from refuting
    either improperly thought-out ideas, or notions at odds
    with extropian insights and thinking. But days like today
    leave me little to do in this area, when I come late to
    looking over the posts, and I was thinking that perhaps
    some of us who have earned our spurs should be left with
    at least a little in the way of bad arguments to refute.

    Now I am reduced to only a paltry ideological attack
    on someone's position, or to meekly pointing out that
    certain things are not so simple as first appear. Well,
    I guess I should be grateful. But I don't feel that way.
    Sigh. ;-) I am made to feel superfluous.

    Lee
