I have spoken to Jim and he agreed that so far as we know, no one directly involved in his mother's case has said anything about it. Indeed I am only addressing the issue now because Jim has named his mother publicly. Alcor made one announcement about this case, which used the patient's ID number throughout. I checked with Jim before writing my case notes. Alcor's membership list is not accessible from outside the facility, and we recently upgraded the security inside the facility. Our list of patients, tissue samples, and preserved pets is very carefully maintained, but is not accessible from outside the facility. --Charles Platt Alcor Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=21593
