I’d be very curious as to when Vinge said that.
I’ve checked my memory banks, and done some google-fu. I believe (75%) it was during this interview with Adam Ford: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tngUabHOea0 or one of his singularity summit talks.
Edit: Found a transcript here: http://mindstalk.net/vinge/firstMoversTalk.html
I remember him saying this to a group of people after a Singularity Summit (I don’t remember which).
