    The /. post reads this way:

    from the here's-the-article dept.
    Concealed writes "There is an article in the new Wired which talks about
    the future of nanotechnology and 'intelligent machines.' Bill Joy, (also
    the creator of the Unix text editor vi) who wrote the article, expresses
    his views on the neccesity of the human race in the near future. " From
    what I can gather this is the article that the Bill Joy on Extinction
    story was drawn from. Bill is a smart guy -- and this is well worth
    reading.

    The article can be found here:

    Bootstrappers and Obscurans will find the article very interesting. Its
    also in the current print edition of Wired Magazine.
