Someone needs to set the BBC > straight that one need not be rich to be involved in cryonics. This is part of message 653 on http://groups.yahoo.com/group/CryonicsEurope/ >>> I finally got here after visiting the news.BBC.co.uk link to CI and getting more and more interested in what was involved. I clearly thought this type of thing was beyond my financial ability but clearly that is not the case. <<< This suggests that the message that cryonics is affordable is getting access. If you watch the video on http://www.cryonics-europe.org/breakfast.htm you will see the message that cryonics is relatively cheap via life insurance being transmitted on BBC television in the UK. Not only that, but this message was near the end of the item, so should remain in people's minds. There were also many local radio interviews, most of which we have yet to put up on the web, as we are waiting for the tape form the agency. The Radio 5 one, also on http://www.cryonics-europe.org contained the message that cryonics is affordable as well. -- Sincerely, John de Rivaz: http://www.deRivaz.com : http://www.AlecHarleyReeves.com http://www.longevity-report.com : http://www.autopsychoice.com : http://www.cryonics-europe.org http://www.porthtowan.com Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=20144
