Hmm, I’d be interested in your thoughts if this is a serious goal of yours, but OTOH broadcasting his sort of thing is pretty obviously a Bad Idea.
On the other hand, more people could sort of accelerate things. I mean, it would take [REDACTED] [REDACTED] [REDACTED] … EY could probably [REDACTED] [REDACTED] but he seems busy (with FAI; might be easier with a world, though) … I’d say LW would be an ideal recruiting ground for help creating a singleton.
