To me, the biggest danger with cryonics isn t finding new technology that can repair the damage to my body it is finding an organization that I can trust to keep me frozen for the century or so it will take to get there. IMHO, look at the history, stability and reliability of each cryonic organization and then make up your mind Long Life, Marta Matthew S. Malek wrote (on 20 February 2005) Greetings! Although I have been intending to live forever via cryonics since I was fifteen, I have not yet signed up to be frozen... largely because of budgetary constraints (I was a grad student until 2003) and the lack of international support (I lived in Japan half time from 1998 till 2003). This year I will turn thirty and I intend to sign up to be frozen before then. The money is no longer an issue and the international travel is less frequent than it used to be. Which begs the question: Who should I sign up with? Alcor? Cryonics Institute? Somebody else??? As a scientist, I would like to look at success rates to determine the best organization to join. Unfortunately, there are no success rates yet -- no cryonics patients have been revived to date. Therefore, I am asking this list for opinions, not so much on who to go with, but on what criteria y'all would advise one to use in making this decision. Thank you very much for sharing your collective wisdom. =>Long life, =>Matthew _________________________________________________________________ Find love today with ninemsn personals.
