Episode notes

I have this theory that what is very important about the current moment is that all of evolution has been survival of the fittest up until now. And at some point, you know, it's kind of the lines are kind of fuzzy, but in the recent past or maybe even just right now, we're getting to this point where we can choose intelligent design. I call us Homo techno. I think we have evolved into Homo techno, which is like essentially a new species.
