Subject: Oregon -- PS contact data

Rudi had asked about contact information. I did talk to the head of End of 
Life Choices, but he was almost hysterical in his opposition to cryo, so it 

would be fruitless or counterproductive to call him again.  Below is the web 
page 
where the Oregon Dept of Health & Human Services reports on results for 2003. 
Elsewhere on their site they describe the legal requirements. Residency is one 
but I think there is really no definition of that -- probably if you are 
there and assert it is your residence, it is.

If anyone knows any doctors up there, please let me know.

BTW, I mentioned a tub of brine in the letter.  I was thinking salt-icewater, 
a few degrees below normal freezing, but apparently "brine" can get much 

colder and damage tissue.  Plain icewater is said to be adequate, so that 
wording 
would be changed.

Alan
