The only valuable part of a human being is the brain. Your attitude toward
another human should be based ONLY on the quality of their brain ...

The corollary to this is of course that any non-brain attribute of a person
is meaningless, so that basing your ambition or effort on charateristics
like sexual attractiveness, physical strength, or simply appearance is
contemptible.

A very admirable attitude, Will (since you left off :-)'s, I'm assuming you
were serious). Of course, since we can't replace our bodies with mechanical
devices yet (silly idea - who wants a body? Just call me "Pure Intellect
One". :-), it won't work. For instance, I need to hire a jockey - and I
would like to win. I *will not* hire someone who weighs as much as I do,
for obvious reasons.

Side note - the pieces of WorldNet are just about the closest thing to what
you describe around. Maybe that's why I'm addicted to them?
