Subject: Flash!  Cryonicists are not "normal" lemmings!  Gad!
Date: Tue, 5 Oct 1999 09:34:20 -0700

In message #12503: "Normal Cryonicists", Charles Platt, informs us that he
has found cryonicists to be socially inept, stubborn and not of above
average intelligence.

So what's your point?  We should commit suicide too?

If that is "normal", you can keep it.

"Normal" is to accept your death as inevitable to appear acceptable to the
group.  To be an "oddball" has also been called being "heroic",
"individualistic", and "determined".

If you pick any demeaning adjective, I can find an adjective with a positive
spin describing the same behavior.  So what?

Now, what is the purpose of all this silly name-calling?

Made some more friends, maybe?

Remember, everything hinges on what others think of you.

Sure.
