Wow - very inspiring - makes me want to "try again" and then "keep trying" and then "try more!" I do have a vision, I may just be a bit short on gumption. But only because of past failures. But you know what they say; 7th time's a charm!

We have somehow elapsed half the distance to complete loss of control over technology since The Singularity - on the other hand there is still the Pierre Teilhard de Chardin version, which is fully a lifetime old, that posits the same prescription to evolution's outcome. How is it then that the questions of philosophy merged with theology fail to interest us? A: we await something on the order of a new social science that actually solves a major chunk of unsolved puzzles of life.
