I have considered two options:
1. To point out the errors in the above quote and in the rest of the
message from which it is derived
2. Make a plea to keep political sniping out of this forum.

I have decided that the second option would be more productive although
probably not providing as much personal satisfaction.

I suggest that the use of political characterizations either as
pejoratives or as expression of praise or approval should not be done
unless it is absolutely needed for a critical point central to the
discussion of cryonics.  It is well known that persons who subscribe to
this mailing list hold variety of opinions on matters of political
philosophy and practice.  And starting up an argument here appears to me
to be neither useful nor wise.

If someone really feels the need for a discussion of politics and
cryonics then perhaps the best thing to do is to create a new list
dedicated to that topics and those interested can discuss there.
