Re: Replicators

These two scenarios are not either/or - but are described to denote
the range of possibilities open to us. We are near to both -
paradoxically enough - it all depends on where we intend to go over
the next 30 years. We are travelling near a cliff in the dark, and we
will undergo massive change in very short time frames. That change
can either be positive or negative again depending on our intent as a
species.
