X-Message-Number: 28696 From: Date: Tue, 28 Nov 2006 02:29:48 EST Subject: My Conference Report posted on Alcor News To CryoNet November 28, 2006 I had mentioned to several people that I was writing a report on the Alcor Conference from six weeks ago. It's finally posted on Alcor News at http://www.alcornews.org/weblog/ (It's my fault for the slowness, not Alcor's.) Also, as a separate article, I was asked to summarize the participant surveys from the Conference, which makes an interesting counterpoint to my own observations. I tried to be careful to keep my opinions separate from the summary of the opinions of others. That article is posted right after my Conference Report. Finally, I want to point out several other interesting news notes posted on Alcor News earlier in November. I haven't seen any other announcements of these. -- 2006 Election Report. Alcor political advisor Barry Aarons evaluates the results of the 2006 Arizona state elections. -- An Update on Recent Progress. A discussion (probably by Tanya Jones and Steve Van Sickle combined) of recent long-term planning by Alcor and of several positive technical improvements. Most of these improvements were announced by Van Sickle at the recent Conference. -- From the last Alcor Board meeting, staff reports on "Marketing and Public Affairs," "Membership Matters," "Patient Care," and "Research and Engineering Development."
