I would be interested to hear off-list from anyone here who knew or had any 
contact with either of these gentlemen. Not for any special reason, but in their
different ways they were both interested in life extension and the future and 
the sorts of issues that bear on cryonics.


John David Garcia (1935 - 2001) was the author of a number of books including 
'The Moral Society' and 'Psychofraud and Ethical Therapy'. I visited him in San 
Francisco in 1984. He has a Wikipedia entry:

Keith Richmond Rex (1934 - 2006) (also known as Keith Rex or Keith Richmond) was
a cartoonist and science fiction writer in Sydney and had wide-ranging 
interests including life extension and corresponded over many years with many 
people including myself.


I know for a fact that Keith was not cryopreserved. John David was not 
cryopreserved as far as I know.


(I guess I don't really need to go into biographical details since anyone 
reading this who knew either of them will of course recognise the name.)
