X-Message-Number: 25785 From: Date: Sun, 13 Mar 2005 12:32:44 -0500 Subject: Watson From a Colorado newspaper: [description of Halloween-type costumes, floats, and acting-out has been omitted] Kennita Watson, a cryogenics advocate, was on-hand at the Frozen Dead Guy Days Expo Center to promote cryonics life insurance policies. She said the dry ice method of preserving Grandpa isn't ideal because dry ice is not cold enough to stop all the decomposing processes in Bredo's body. It's likely, she said, Grandpa's corpse already has deteriorated beyond the point that he can be brought back to life in the future. "People don't really want to think of Grandpa as an experiment, but he really is," Watson said. ============ So, it worked out the way rational people would expect. The event was a freak show, the media covered that way, cryonics was presented as something between snake oil and comedy, and Kennita Watson got her name in the newspaper (which was all she really wanted all along). Watson is an airhead dilettante. -- ___________________________________________________________ Sign-up for Ads Free at Mail.com http://promo.mail.com/adsfreejump.htm Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=25785
