i didn't ask you something. you sound like the captain of the Titanic saying: "No iceberg until now, so no danger!" Before chernobyl there also wasn't no chernobyl. You can easily find information about the five biggest nuclear catastrophes on the internet - chernobyl is not even the biggest one. also about the limitations of natural oil resources. but you seem to be resistant against facts. why is this so? do you so much need to dream about technology with infinite power and no risks?

We don't have to worry about being ovetaken by the machines becuase we are going to end up having to hybrid ourselves with the machines to keep ourselves ahead of the technology.

What if somebody said: It's important that this technology does not develop in nations that (1) attack weaker nations (Panama, Iraq, etc.), (2) overthrow democracies (CIA in Chile, Iran, Guatemala, etc.); (3) do not have weapons of mass destructions, (4) have never used atomic weapons, (5) don't consider military spending their highest priority, (6) don't have a cult of "We are number 1 in the world."

With Nanotechnology are genes will change and we will be over 1,000 times smarter and become a lot stroger..there was this guy who said that If you replease 10% of ur body with nano blood cells you could stay under water for 4 hours and run for 15 mins with out taking a breath.

It's an interesting notion when you think about technology's relation to evolution and natural selection. In ages past, genetic mutations caused novel traits which either increased or decreased an organism's ability to survive and/or thrive. Many of out technological advances have essentially canceled out this process -- we use technology to help the weak survive. As such, it would seem that technology has halted natural selection, thereby halting the chain of evolution with the homo sapiens.

It seems fitting, almost poetically so, that we should use technology itself to jump-start the process! Maintaining control over something that's higher up the chain of evolution than us? Well, that's kind of impossible by definition. I'm with jhexp1001 on this one... the only way to maintain the security of our species is to augment ourselves physically to keep up.

i really think you missed the point of this... if you think replacing your body with nano-tech.. your drastically underestimating this technology... the ability to replace your emotions remories and thoughts (aka soul) with a "computer" the oportunities are infinite. the "need" for o2 and such would be gone. our small pathetic bodies would become an option..... its quite scary... but what is excitment with out the unknown?
