Overall, it appears we do agree that (1) the dying should be frozen now, using the best methods that circumstances permit, and (2) research by cryonicists for cryonics-related purposes should continue. This is something at least to be glad over! But there is something that still puzzles me in George Smith's posting (#12302): "Personally I think it is wonderful that the quantum computer (nano-computer) breakthrough has happened." Now it seems, George, you are equating the nano-computer with the quantum computer and saying THE breakthrough for it (them) has happened. I have followed reports on both for some time now and it's clear that progress is being made (I wouldn't just equate the two types of computers however, though it is clear there are connections and one might turn out to be the other, when all is said and done.) But I don't get the impression yet of any "big breakthrough"--could you cite some references? Mike Perry Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=12306
