Now it's about SRMD!

[elfs]

Hot on the flywheel-powered, mesobot-reinforced wellstone-repaired heels of my mentioning SRMD (That's Science Related Memetic Disorder, also known as "Mad Science Syndrome."), I learn that an organization out of Misouri, The Elliot Insitute (for some reason I'm reminded of Robin William's riff on the way ET walked in that execrable Spielberg film: "Elliot! Elliot! Ouch! I'm walking on my testicles!"), is seeking to ban transhumanism. You have to love the first image of a mother comforting her daughter, who's obviously traumatized beyond rational thought by the fact that Muffy down the street has better vision, recall, and hair than she does.

First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you...
