I do not claim any keys to public response, but here are some major points about cryonics which suggest that it will not....we should not so blithely assume that such an achievement will cause much change at all in public attitudes to cryonics. I don't assume that reversible cryopreservation by itself will do much to change public attitudes towards cryonics. What it will do, however, is change the attitudes of people like myself, who have the resources to promote cryonics in a big way. That, in turn, will lead to mainstream physicians and hospitals being involved in the delivery of services and many other things which will increase business substantially. How much it will do so, I can't predict, but I'm real interested in finding out. ---Saul Kent Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=13203
