Free Inquiry 1989 Spring;9(2):19-24

No "position", but whenever cryonics has been mentioned in Skeptical 
Inquirer it has been extremely negative.  There has never been a positive 
or even neutral mention in the magazine.  It has only been mentioned in 
passing (i.e. no articles) and I could not cite references, but I have a 
complete set of the magazine and know of which I speak.
