X-Message-Number: 2392 Date: Wed, 25 Aug 93 07:14:40 PDT From: Lola McCrary <> Subject: CRYONICS Alcor at ConFrancisco Alcor North will be hosting a party over Labor Day weekend in conjunction with ConFrancisco, the 1993 World Science Fiction Convention. The party will be an "open" party at the con itself on Saturday night. Since it is an official party during the convention, people attending will need to have badges for the convention. The party will be in the PARC 55 Hotel in San Francisco, and will begin at 8:00pm. There will be flyers posted about the party in the usual places around the convention, or ask for Ben Best's room in the hotel for the room number. The party will end at 3am. You can also ask for Lola McCrary's room at the ANA for more information. There will also be panels on nanotechnology and cryonics at the convention, organized by Ralph Merkle. Watch your program guide for dates and times (I believe they are Sunday afternoon, beginning at 3:00). Parties attract a lot of attention at science fiction conventions, and even though cryonics membership has been traditionally low through just science fiction fandom, we believe the party will, at worst, be good PR (not to mention, a lot of fun). Steve Bridge, President of Alcor, will be attending, and we will have literature to pass out, and gift items to sell. It will also provide a centralized place for cryonicists attending the con to meet and talk. We look forward to seeing many of you there!
