Gene is a type only to be found on Pigdog Journal: a German-Russian extropian who speaks seven languages and can kill a man with his bare claws. He currently works in a lab in Southern California where he freezes the heads of rich science-fiction fans, but spends most of his time torturing small mammals with liquid nitrogen. Gene's biggest dream is to lead the human infosphere through the Singularity and be the biggest bush robot on the space station. He would kick your ASS then, man!

They do deserve, however, to have one final kickass party to celebrate all the bad things they've done in the past, present and future. And you, as a friend, have to make sure that their desire for a final send off is well executed (sorry for the pun). That's just the way of BPotFdom. (More...)
