Let us consecrate aloft your ne plus ultra—you melancholic spirit, idée fixe, idée-force, élan vital of yore, rapt temple pillar gracing ocean battered steps at Khronus' shrine.

I don't think this dichotomy makes a lot of sense. Generally speaking, people are both. So-called introverts tend to be those that have more exclusionary standards. You will always feel great surrounded by people you can relate to at a very deep level.

The reason great works of art and culture aren't being made as often or as well doesn't really have much to do with anything other than a loss of belief in eternity.
Breeding will never fix this problem, only a focus on longevity will.

This theater about "detail" is a dishonest tactic. You can only talk in detail about dangers that are already clear, and thus mitigated. The very nature of the greatest dangers is that you *can't* talk about them "in detail", that is *why* they are so dangerous to start with.

Since they didn't have the power to do this, the board was a sham all along, and they just exposed it.
