X-Message-Number: 24997 From: "Joe Waynick" <> Subject: Prompt Notification of Deanimation Date: Mon, 8 Nov 2004 16:57:41 -0700 Mike Donahue makes an excellent suggestion. There are many factors out of the control of Alcor that may interfere with a Standby and Transport. Technology is available to all cryonicists that will help improve their chances of receiving a better cryopreservation. Technology such as the medical alert devices Mike describes can significantly shorten unattended cardiac arrest and may even prevent an autopsy. I think this is important enough that Alcor should investigate the possibility of helping members obtain such devices as well as helping members locate a monitoring service for the purpose of providing around-the-clock assistance if needed.
