X-Message-Number: 19661 Date: Wed, 31 Jul 2002 08:02:58 -0400 From: Thomas Donaldson <> Subject: CryoNet #19647 - #19660 Hi everyone! First, any comment about prices of cryonics in Australia should make clear just what currency in which they are quoted. The original commentator giving those prices DID NOT DO SO. Furthermore, it's far from clear just what the quoted prices are for; converting $50,000 at a 0.54 Australian dollar/ US dollar rate would give a much higher figure than used in the original. Not only that, but to really press this issue, the Australian dollar has been rising with respect to the US dollar. Does this really say that American societies will accept a smaller fee if you live for another year? As for the 2 questions, I am sorry that Dormammu didn't notice a certain levity in my comments. Moreover, if we want to be serious, I nowhere claimed that my 2 questions were the ONLY questions which arose. Best wishes and long long life for all, Thomas Donaldson Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=19661
