I can also assure you, that I am often sorely tempted to draw the attention of my friends in Cryonet to some of the serious topics, which do not receive any, or at least not enough attention in the mainstream media. But partisan politics will get cryonics into even more hot water than it will get into otherwise, when it becomes more widely known. There are discussion groups, where such topics as Neo-conservatism and PNAC are widely discussed, most notably the one in the Washington Post, where with very few exceptions the intellectual niveau of the debaters is quite comparable to the one on Cryonet. The participants often supply URLs to information, which adds insights not available in the American mainstream media.
