Subject: CRYONICS

On Mr. Wakefer's dispute with Dr. Merkle on the definition of cryonics:

I agree with Paul Wakefer AND Ralph Merkle so I think both of their
definitions should be incorporated into one and I have taken the
liberty to combine both of their remarks.  Perhaps the following
combined definition would satisfy all.

"Cryonics is the technique of freezing the body of a legally-deceased
person for storage until medical technology advances sufficiently to
repair and revive them" except in the case of Paul Wakefer where
"Nowhere is there even a hint that however advanced the technology is,
the information may not be there to repair and revive."

Foistingly Yours,

Dave
