<AI - 'experimenting with immortality'>

• What you would really like to find out is how Adam Smith would comment on the World Electronic Trade Act of 2004...
• Religion has so much to do with AI. Ever since Hero the Alexandrian designed his automaton for opening the temple's door the right moment during sacrifice... even before, statues of gods everywhere often had limbs and jaws that moved, voices that spoke the priests' wishes. The intelligent machine is part of every culture's theology and mythology, its daemonology more often.
• So, AI turned around swiftly, as it always likes to do. (Fascinating to watch how this community swerved and jerked and overreacted to every stimulus, criticism and fad, darting to and fro insecurely, like schooling fish.)
• Have you ever asked yourselves why our leaders felt in the mid-1990s the sudden urge to rewrite the research agenda of the nation's physicists? And anybody wondered how the Texas-sized tunnel is used now? Well, a few of us know. This is where the government runs its secret quantum machines, that is where it cracks its citizen's public key codes. {OK, this is really about encryption.}
  

__ Compare today's date with your return ticket once in a while.
__ a glorious, brilliant sea of symbols; a suffocating film of rules
__ What little things? These things are huge. Every lover has a moment, a memory you bring back all the right times.
__ Your cabinet , your congress, they are all irrelevant, Mom. You are a curiosity from the past, America's palace guards.
__ the curse of dimensionality
