I kept thinking the same thing watching. (that he was either high or had been drinking) The times when he laughs were very uncomfortable.In the website video discussion I thought Eliezer fared very well and more than held his own. On the other hand, Lanier looked like he had been up all night drinking...

Why don't you like Eliezer? I virtually watched him "grow up" on the Extropy mailing list over the past ten or so years. I remember when he was very sensitive about his age/youthfulness. I just wished he had pursued a formal education, but he can be very stubborn if he does not want to do something. lol And yet despite that, he is extremely bright (doesn't like to be called a genius) and also quite good at self-promotion. The latter quality makes me want to compare him (it may seem like a strange comparison) to Howard Stern. But Eliezer's entire net worth probably does not equal Stern's pocket change.

-Eliezer Yudkowsky, bloggingheads interviewWhat exactly do you mean by "machine", such that humans are not machines?

It is run by Bob Wright (who wrote NonZero, runs meaningoflife.tv, etc). They usually have semi-prominent people associated with different subject areas. (lots of political stuff, high traffic bloggers, scientists, etc.) Saturday is always a science subject, and would likely be the best area to get on, although the "Free Will" show is very oriented towards libertarian and free expression type stuff. (and the host, Will Wilkinson has mentioned being interested in cryonics before; I think I did a thread on that sometime awhile back)Is it some sort of debate kind-of thingy? Over the web. How does one get on bloggingheads.
