The "Singularity"
Something for us all to poke fun at this summer: The Technological Singularity. I've been reading through the first article by the guy who coined the term, and he's pulling the same tricks as Willie Jessup of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. It's funny. Warren Ellis, SF novel and comic writer, suggested that once one gets bored with the singularity shenanigan, one should instead substitute "Flying Spaghetti Monster" in at every occurence for a good chuckle, and an equally well thought out article.
