Re: Kurzweil's Book Great read, but as many have observed, AI has been the "next big thing" for the past 40 years in computing. But I'm sure all here look forward to the day when an AI-based expert trader can support us. :)

Thanks for your posts Scott! It sounds like an interesting book. Even if we cannot create artificial intelligence, it will be interesting to watch the progress towards this in the years to come. Joe

Hi Scott! Getting back to the Artificial Intelligence comments you posted, it seems that the human mind is a lot like a communications computer, "thinking" being the process of running images and ideas before the minds eye, to extract insights/intelligence to be stored or communicated to others, with the links and the way they are stored in the mind important to IQ. Would you say sleeping could be considered a form of reindexing, compressing and back-up of the days experiences, and that religion and government could be viewed as a form of operating system, network software for humans? I must be a little bored to be coming up with these questions. JW
