Hello, Fellow Cryoneters...
 
After returning from a remarkable trip to the Canadian Yukon and Alaska, I  
am pleased to be back.  My wife/business partner Dawn and I  saved...literally 
coins in a large jar...for ten  years for this  trip.  Worth every penny!  But 
now are working very hard to get  people the affordable and solid cryonics 
funding they "want and  need." 
 
(After all, who among us would be so arrogant and ignorant to decide  for 

others what they "want and need?"  Our actual NEED is a spot  of ground about 2
meters by one to bury us in.  As human beings,  our WANTS, fortunately, are 
much higher.  We may WANT a car,  a home, clothes that fit, good 

relationships...the list stretches to  infinity.  And this is good...it is a net
positive that 
people want more  than subsistence and poverty...most of us choose to want 
something we can define  individually called prosperity!)
 
So, I thought I would read, as part of my literally 489 emails, back issues  
of cryonet.
 
That was probably a mistake.  
 
My next mistake is responding to Anthony with a question, which I will ask  
in a moment.  However, I will start initially with a "personal ground rule"  
that I will NOT engage in extensive dialogue here, as I am putting about 15  

hours a day working to provide goods and services to individuals who rationally
want to have a chance to live.  BTW, Anthony...please don't vilify me as a  

member of the super rich...after 28 years of ridiculous "dues paying" I am far
from that.  But I do have some reasonably wealthy clients.  And  every single 
one of them has created wealth by figuring out HOW they can be of  service to 
more people, and meet the NEEDS and DESIRES of more people.  
 
But, with the degree of the "politics of envy" represented by the Anthony  

quote above and some previous Anthony verbiage, I am quite curious to have the
answer to the following question:

Anthony.  May I ask what you do  for a living?
 
Regards,
 
Rudi
