That's interesting-- I totally don't see going to the press (in the
abstract) as a bad thing, I see it as a valuable RFC from the larger
community-- in the case, the community of humans.
But I wonder if I really believe that, or if I just believe that in
this case because I tend to agree that the Durova Incident was such a
huge deal. When you have a human brain, you can never really be
sure-- or at least, I can't. :)
