Dave, the principle issue from which you have spun out on is simply
an administrative issue, not the alleged fear of neuro preservation and your
erroneous notions about the prospect I would cancel my membership.  The fact
of the matter is, this is about paperwork, contracts, and ensuring Alcor
stays in the loop if efforts are made to change funding arrangements and
membership status.  In my particular case, Alcor is both the owner and
beneficiary of my insurance policy, and members of my immediate family have
signed a relative's affidavit.  In the event of my non-suspension, my
funding is evenly divided up between Alcor operations, research, and the
PCT.  As a result, any attempt from my family to interfere with my cryonics
arrangements will likely result in them having to appear in court, and not
only will they loose such a court battle, they will not profit financially.
If every Alcor member had their arrangements as secure as mine, the
probability of having these types of discussions would be significantly
reduced.  At the end of the day, both Alcor and individual members have a
responsibility to work together to figure out how best to secure
their funding arrangements to avoid complications later on.

Mathew
