Is Zack a big cheese in the community or just some random internet person who spams people with emails?

Reminds me of Rod Dreher in ways.

…you met him???

They don’t just cling to it - they massage their scores/educational achievements.

More closeted then ace from what I’ve been tood - but thats common in this scene.

Its to do with her dad I figure.

“ He's bragged about being the hidden hand behind some of the worst of the rationalist scene's abuse, egging on the wrong people and pushing them towards psychotic breaks, just to see if he can.”

Does anyone know more? Was he involved with Grognor (ugly story)?

I’ll remember to do descriptions better next time!

Look up the Phoenix Foundation. Its been tried before.

I’ve seen this used to scam rats/postrats. Its really something to see.

Yeah, that part was very interesting.

I hate the co-option of SETI these guys try.
