Dear NetBehaviourists,
The Internet Engineering Task Force Request for Comments 1437 outlines an
Extension of MIME Content-Types to include the:
matter-transport/sentient life-form transport
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc1437
to support life-bearing email (for example). Careful implementation of this
protocol and its attendant engineering standards would enable us to visit
other NetBehaviour subscribers without having to pay airfare. For those of
us living in the Untied States of America, the possibility of emailing
ourselves into democracies (talkin' about you, Canada and Mexico) could
prove a welcome alternative to actually implementing one ourselves.
Thanks to AI's capacity for predicting the content of internet packets *before
they arrive* (just the latest development in our mad rush to the future),
we could even find ourselves transported into a democracy before we so much
as conceive of the possibility, if our friends will only harness the power
of AI and provide us with lots of server space.
I will nominate Alan Sondheim as the first test subject, i.e., Internet
Transport Pioneer, to attempt Transport to a Democracy. If he arrives
unscrambled and right side up, I will follow. UK subscribers, check your
Spam folders, just in case AI has already sent us your way.
Tell me you are working on this, please.
all best,
Paul
