X-Message-Number: 22119 From: "George Dvorsky" <> Subject: Betterhumans Bioethics Debate in Toronto - Aug 29 Date: Wed, 02 Jul 2003 21:57:16 -0400 Betterhumans will be holding an important event on Friday, August 29, 2003 called "Debating the Future: Bioethics from Science Fiction to Science Fact." The event will feature Canada's leading bioethicist, Margaret Somerville, and controversial US bioethicist James Hughes. In debate moderated by journalist Tim Falconer, they will address life extension, cloning, nanotechnology and genetic engineering. I think that this event will be extremely exciting and informative, and I want you to have an opportunity to attend. We are holding the event during the World Science Fiction convention, which attracts thousands of people. For this reason, I am sending out advanced notice so that anyone who is interested can purchase tickets before they officially go on sale next Monday. There is a good chance that this event will sell out quickly. If you are interested, please visit http://www.betterhumans.com/Events/Debating_the_Future/. Here you can learn more about the event and purchase tickets. If you are interested or know others who might be, you can also download information about sponsoring the event. I hope that you can make it.
