Daniel Roberts made a terrific suggestion re Holocene and a possible initial market. I totally agree that online dating services would make a terrific initial test market, since the cocktail party analogy is perfectly apropos.

For those of you disappointed about my fan page having "only" 150 fans, please note: I welcome you all!
David can only stop by this page infrequently. I must write 1000 words per day on my novel, and frequently update my two political/science blogs.
Please feel free to drop by my Contrary Brin blog at: http://davidbrin.blogspot.com and drop me a line.

David added a "follow" option to "Contrary Brin," the Blogspot blog. It helps to put a face on the blog's readers - although the raucous comments do this too!
If you have a Blogger account and read Contrary Brin, please click to become a follower. (The Salon blog has a follower option too.)

Why is David taking time out from finishing his newest Uplift book to blog about the election? He's a Futurist -- and wants a future to predict!

David just started a second blog on Salon: http://open.salon.com/content.php?cid=17
Called Tomorrow Happens (recognize the name?), it will have a more essayist vibe than Contrary Brin. The first entry: "Things Only A Zillionaire Could Do To Save America."

re: odd scientific dilemma.
Odd? No. Just different people, different tastes.
