Enrich, Enhance, Extend

I am not going to preach about how the media skews our interest toward the dark and gloomy. The time comes all to uncommonly and briefly when CNN or FOX or US Today tells of the actual positive contributions the humans of the world are making to enrich, enhance, and extend our lives. This blog will attempt to show (through advancements in nanotechnology and biotechnology) some of the advancements of the ideas E(cubed) and how prevalent it has become and how it is going to explode over the next few decades. We will also inject our own critiques, ideas, and futurist comments on the world to be and the world that is. We will attempt to explain in lay person's terms, because we are in fact, lay people. There is a calling to all of you to reach out past your natural inclination toward negativity and instead of standing out over the ocean at the edge of a pier, thinking of all the lives lost at sea in the attempt to discover the world, think of the how the ocean has spawned life to grow and to evolve so that we can attempt to understand the world.

A little on cancer.
Both my brother and I, the two bloggers you see here, have been directly impacted by cancer by loss of grandparents and extended family. It is terrible no doubt, and prevalent no doubt, however there is beauty in the ocean, closer than the horizon.

Extend!

As We Near the Singularity

As We Near the Singularity, who will compete for (and complete) our lives? I may find that I have purchased a gLife. Your friend may purchases an iLife. There will of course by generic vLives. We may even have eLives. We look forward to the day.

gLive = Google

iLife = Apple

vLife = virtual Life

eLife = eBay life
