Probably a good idea for cryonicists in general to
whip up a press release for the media and counter all
the, ahem, misinformation put out by certain parties
with respect to the Williams affair.

First, I STRONGLY object to your negative
characterization of John Henry: he is a hero of
cryonics and life extension who went stuck with his
principles against a strong tide of public and media
disapproval and (along with Claudia) had his father
cryopreserved.  I think maybe you are actually
believing some of the, ahem, misinformation put out by
the media regarding cryonics in connection with the
Williams affair.

Second, if I were you, I would lay off the perjorative
adjectives directed to a certain litigious party
involved in this affair. It's one thing to give your
opinion, but you should watch what you say here--you
never know who might be reading these messages....
