X-Message-Number: 27390 From: "T.Theodorus Ibrahim" <> Subject: RE: Alcor News #45 22 Nov 2005 "Scientists Go Public.." Date: Fri, 25 Nov 2005 10:11:47 -0000 It was extremely pleasing to see the item "Dozens of Scientists Go Public with Support for Cryonics" in the latest issue of Alcor News (#45 22 Nov 2005). But it was disappointing to see who comprised this list. Not because who was named (they are all excellent people) but because there was barely an unfamiliar name to be seen. A true measure of our success in establishing the critical support needed to ensure the survival and effectiveness of bio-stasis technology here would be the number of unfamiliar mainstream scientists in any one such list. So whilst it is a morale booster to see this roll, lets not any of us relax. The stalwarts named are heroes. But the list needs to be larger and have other names in it. Most of the people listed currently are also those best positioned to expand it. To support them in this endeavour all of us should go public in our support of cryonics / bio-stasis as well. theo Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=27390
