X-Message-Number: 30571 Date: Mon, 3 Mar 2008 23:58:36 -0700 From: "Finance Department" <> Subject: Alcor board knew it would go away if they just gave it time ------=_Part_11349_3200047.1204613916247 Content-Disposition: inline First they acted like they were interested in the subject, then they presented lame objections, and now they are not talking at all, about their dictatorship. They knew the clamor would die down if they gently let it rest. The advocates for freedom and democracy in cryonics have seemingly run out of steam in their crusade to make Alcor a credible choice with which to entrust their future lives, at the time when they can have no say. Yes, they want the say now, for bettering the time when they cannot say anything. But it can't be over. There were too many good ideas presented, and they are still there. Mugsim presented some great ideas about tiered levels of involvement. Pizer suggested a similar approach with the excellent idea of the advisors being elected, having to do straw recorded votes that become an established track record, and then become the pool from which the board members are chosen? NO, ELECTED. But will the firmly entrenched establishment readily give up their positions of power? LOL as the AOLers love to say. Hell has not yet reached them in order for it to freeze over, and that to happen. I wonder in what way(s) hell could be made to reach them, since they think they are unreachable? Any ideas? ------=_Part_11349_3200047.1204613916247 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 [ AUTOMATICALLY SKIPPING HTML ENCODING! ] Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=30571
