X-Message-Number: 12387 From: Thomas Donaldson <> Subject: for Olaf Henny and Brian Delaney Date: Wed, 8 Sep 1999 23:50:17 +1000 (EST) Hi again! For Olaf Henny: First of all, only a restricted number of jurisdictions even allow trusts that last indefinitely (the kind that you'd probably want, since none of us really have any good idea as to what we'll die of, how we'll die, and just how long our own revival will take). Try Lichtenstein and several other countries. To my knowledge, every US state has laws that disallow trusts which last indefinitely (if anyone knows differently for sure, I'd like them to reply!!!). Given that you CAN write a trust which lasts indefinitely, it should be easy to prevent relatives or anyone from taking it. If the trust is not carried out because of the TRUSTEES, clearly there's not much remedy. As for the possibility of revival in a nonbiological form (whatever that may mean in the future, which may completely obscure the distinction), if you are preserved then it just stands to reason that there will be means to identify YOU. After all, how are they to revive you unless they can know they are reviving you? And one extra addition to my reply to Brian Delaney, I did not mention chromium picolinate, which acts against glycation rather than oxidation. Best and long long life for all, Thomas Donaldson Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=12387
