On this one point, can you site a reference that they were not sure. I have cited one that they were.
As far as the discussion about how to evaluate potentially globally dangerous human actions, you and I were discussing it earlier (I gave the example of nuclear weapons and MAD) - I still think it worthy of a seperate discussion.
