X-Message-Number: 31167 Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2008 08:36:27 -0800 (PST) From: Julian Conrad <> Subject: "Eleventh Hour" cryonics episode online You have to look for the link that plays the video in your browser if you don't want to download the website's special player: http://www.ninjavideo.net/video/13726 It's funny how the show's anti-cryonics villain sounded more focussed and philosophical than the seemingly normal cryonicists, especially the terminally ill man with a pregnant wife who signed up to be frozen because he wanted a chance to get to know his child some day even if he couldn't be around to see him grow up. (Hopefully the kid won't have to visit him as a "dadsicle"!) They're almost the exact opposite of the odd, obsessional, often child-free people I've met or read about in cryonics, where at least one cryonicist has described himself as "ruthless monster." You usually don't hear people in that crowd talking about being frozen for socially acceptable, altruistic reasons. Regards, Julian Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=31167
