It seems to be that in order for us to maximize our chances of a good cryopreservation, we should form a cryonics community. Since most of us here are with Alcor, I would propose that this community be located in Arizona, possibly north of Phoenix; the climate is nice there. I would propose that we form an entity such as a housing cooperative, which could buy land in AZ and develop it much more cheaply than could one person by him/herself. This would allow us to have onsite cryonicists who could live there rent-free if they were trained in cryopreservation techniques. Such a community would afford the very best cryopreservation for the money (no Alcor standby would be needed since trained cryopreseravationists would be onsite). __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
