I look forward to your activities in these regards in Denmark, where
you seem to be based. 

Like most cryonics issues, there is a large component of work involved.
WHO is to do this work, specifically?

Finally, a third issue, coming from me as someone who has been with
cryonics for many years. I am not TRYING to be separatist or exclusive
in any way. It is the other people who someone, in the face of all
reason, so often refuse even to think about cryonics, much less to try
to join. I've lost friends that way, I've come up against far too many
brick walls. And so, if you think you see a way to turn cryonics into a
mass movement, go ahead and do it. The rest of us clear back to Ettinger
himself have tried for years, and in the end decided to cultivate their
own garden.

And seriously, David: you do have lots of good ideas. I've read your
letters with interest for a long time. But good ideas alone are never
enough. Someday I personally believe that cryonics WILL BE a mass move-
ment ---- but probably years after my own suspension.

				Best and long life,
