principles in techno label design (was Richie Hawtin "k" )

I was talking about techno names but if you want to get philosophical the
human race is doomed and will become obsolete like the Neanderthal
man.
The Borg is a primitive science fiction concept since you will be dealing
with more advance technology in the not to distant future such as nano
technology, computers on the molecular level.
people are only animals genetically closely related to the Ape and will
continue to evolve like all thing in nature including technology.
I would like to see a techno purist type mailing list where terms like
"soul", "god",
"emotions", the community social structure (politics) that dominate list
like
313 are not allowed, not even incidents like 9/11.
Only the discussion of techno music and the
expression of new ideas concerning techno, sarcasm and humor will also
not be allowed your only allowed to state your opinion on a particular
music item, promote your label/ project and stay focused on techno.
