X-Message-Number: 28223 Date: Fri, 14 Jul 2006 07:57:22 -0700 (PDT) From: human screener <> Subject: TMTend: TimesUK article-->Zygote cryonics? Continued from http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/dsp.cgi?msg=28214 Anthony has agreed with me that cryonics for discarded embryos is a valid idea insofar as cryonics goes.[20] He covered a lot of ground in that post but to maintain the rather thin connection to the original idea in this thread, -- which was that Mark's support of a screening program that discarded zygotes with an order-of-magnitude much larger DNA-blacklist constituted a possible problem (paradox or irony) since it was likely that the zygotes, given the large 6,000+ trait list, had DNA in common with Mark (or any of us)-- I'll ask Mark Plus-- if he's reading Cryonet (although most of his writing is being directed to his blog now [21])-- if-- given that he supports the screening program, would he then support a zygote-cryonics program for the discarded? The End: Anthony-- I gotta go. Thanks for the ideas.... Mark-- if you can, let readers here know what your position is on proactively preserving discarded zygotes if you will. Alcor and CI board members-- if you can, let readers know if policy accomodates frozen embryo storage. I've run out of free time. It's been fun. --human screener.
