If we really want to make inroads, we should offer free (or very low cost) tissue sample cryopreservation for pets at Alcor. This cryopreservation for cloning purposes offer could be the gateway to a cryopreservation for revival offer later. That would be the gateway (kinda like marijuana is a gateway drug for heroin...aww, never mind...) for cryopreservation for humans. How much does it cost for Alcor to cryopreserve pet tissue samples. Or do they even offer that? Hey, whatever happened to Cells for Life? I thought they were going into that busines.... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
