X-Message-Number: 2596 Date: Thu, 10 Feb 94 21:31:02 From: Steve Bridge <> Subject: CRYONICS New Alcor email address (Via unlicensed copy of UGATE) To CryoNet and others >From Steve Bridge, Alcor February 10, 1994 NEW ALCOR E-MAIL DOMAIN AND ADDRESSES Several of you have asked about Alcor's apparent new domain "alcor.com". This was an Internet mistake. We had applied for "alcor.org" and someone had goofed. It took several weeks longer to correct the goof than it did to acquire it. Someone's law is being invoked here, I suspect. It's all Murphy to me. In any case, we are now alcor.org ("org" for organization", although several people prefer to pronounce it as if it were short for "orgy," which is sadly inaccurate in this particular case). This also means that you can now send PRIVATE mail to individual Alcor staff members. For general mail that can go to anyone or should go to everyone, or if you DON'T KNOW who should handle the question, use: If your message is for everyone, it is most convenient for us if you would simply send it to each individual staff member listed below. But of course if you feel that your time is more important than my time (hummpf), I will make sure the appropriate messages get copied to everyone. Please make sure you begin such messages with "To everyone." Staff members'addresses and general duties are listed below. Steve Bridge, President and receiver of general griping. Ralph Whelan, Vice President and publications editor Tanya Jones, Suspension Team leader Hugh Hixon, Facility Engineer, handles suspension equipment and biochemistry Derek Ryan, Membership Administrator. For general information and for membership sign-up. Michael Perry, Patient caretaker and for information on the Venturists and immortalist philosophy. Joe Hovey, bookkeeper and data base supervisor. For questions about subscriptions and billing. Scott Herman, information systems manager, e-mail supervisor, helping with move to Arizona. NOTES: 1. For the time being we are still keeping our old address active <> since that is listed in so many places. Also, for a while yet that will still be the way to send messages to Carlos Mondragon, Alcor Director and former President. 2. While we are preparing to move to Arizona, we may have occasional lapses in e-mail delivery, and one individual or another may not see their e-mail for several days while traveling back and forth. (Yes, that means the move is definite. I'll post details in the next couple of days.) 3. Please call us if your message bounces back or doesn't get answered in a few days. Thank you. Steve Bridge [ NOTE: This "alcor.org" addition is a recent change and the maps of Internet connections probably haven't yet propagated to all sites on the Net. You probably will want to continue using the old address "" for a few more days. - KQB ] Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=2596
