But the discussions on Sunday (some of stayed over, due to the long distances back to our homes, or as with Vernor, in lieu of a night in a hotel) touched on point of interest to our list.

Wormholes, reversible computation, the 7,000-Cray NSA computer, the problems with nanotech, the problems with AI, the Tines and the Powers, the Extropians group (Vernor was curious), the Singularity, and the implications of the OJ Simpson case were a few of the topics. (Yes, several of us had "wasted" our time watching this case. Me, I think it's drama of truly Shakespearean proportions, and should not be "dissed" just becuase it's getting more attention than the Rhwandans and Haitians are getting...not to mention the boring Bosnians.)
Did Vinge have anything of interest to the list to say that you could pass on? Wes thu hal, Al Billings
