To my surprise, the "Cold Filter" discussion forum at

http://www.network54.com/Forum/291677

is generating a lot of serious and thoughtful on-topic
dialogues about cryonics these days. I say "to my surprise"
because I had associated the network54 service with Rick
Potvin conspiracy theories, but in fact the "Cold Filter"
site is not Potvin-owned.

Cold Filter has two advantages over CryoNet:

1. It is topic-threaded. In other words, messages are grouped
by topic so that you can view the to-and-fro progress of a
discussion very easily.

2. It is not time-dependent. Each post appears on the site as
soon as the person writes the text. An active topic can
evolve quite rapidly.

I am not suggesting this is a substitute for CryoNet, but it
is a useful supplement.
