I thought it was great when Charles Platt started writing for Alcor and
thought for the first time since Mike Darwin left we may see some real
honest news and opinions about Alcor and cryonics in general.

Having spent fourteen years with Alcor BC (before chamberlins) I would be
delighted to hear Alcor news but as far as I can see it is still a closed
shop.

When I was with Alcor there were no problems getting The Immortalist but now
I am with CI the only information I receive about Alcor is through cryonet.
