X-Message-Number: 19843 Date: Mon, 19 Aug 2002 15:05:24 -0700 From: Jerry Lemler <> Subject: Heading for the Summit The Alcor Life Extension Foundation looks forward to the inaugural CryoSummit to be held this weekend (August 23-25), at CI headquarters in Clinton Township, Michigan. At the meetings, scheduled to begin on Friday evening, we expect to be joined by our hosts, as well as representatives from ACS and Suspended Animation, Inc. Note: I personally extended an invitation to John Rodriguez, President of TransTime, to attend the CryoSummit, but regrettably he failed to respond. We have a "full plate agenda" before us, inclusive of discussions on such topics as: sharing technical information, coordinating cooperative research, establishing a professional association of organizations, local help agreements, psychological support for suspension staff workers, and a mutual backup agreement to name just a few. Alcor's delegation will include, in addition to myself, Board Members Hugh Hixon and Dr. Michael Riskin, and Board Advisors Judy Muhlestein and Dr. Robert Newport. Personally, I haven't been to the Detroit area since the summer of 1965. I suspect it's changed somewhat since then. I know I have. Sooner AND Later, Dr. Jerry Lemler Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=19843
