I think (s)he was  talking about my rejection of the idea 
of survival through uploading. Well, I have read that book and
his arguments for uploading are faulty in several ways,
which I  have discussed in Youniverse. 
 
 
A more thoughtful presentation of uploading is in Mike
Perry's FOREVER FOR ALL. Mike is more or less
in the uploading camp, but admits to uncertainty.

I've got a new animation just for you. It's pro technology, and features a 
digital robot singing a very transhumanist song that I wrote:
The video is available here:

I hope you like it, please let me know if you do.

Hi: 

I have a web radio station on Live365.com. My current Holidaze playlist contains a couple of tunes that may be of interest here: "I Will Never Die" by Grayson Wray on the album Tales Of Mystery And Loneliness; "Cryogenic" by the Swimming Pools on their album When You Don't Know What You Want. 

I think this kind of cultural input should be encouraged and supported. How about you? 

Enjoy!
