Regarding progress: right, compared to something like electronics there was little progress in cryonics over the last 40 years. And it would be no wonder if there are no useful statistics available to check if the pace of technical progress in comparison to it's financial progress has slowed down for more than 50 Percent over the last 20 years. Yes, that's something those on the payroll at some cryonics organizations can happily bear. Regarding economics and my personal payroll, it actually occurs to me that I belong to a social class of the one Percent of citizens with the lowest financial income in Germany. For more than ten years I have tried to earn more money so I could afford to sign up for cryonics without being a burden to my family and their own needs my income has to fulfill. But as I grew older, I even got more ill than before, so after I lost my last job opportunities more and more, I got retired anyways. No resources, not even http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/tradecommunity could pull the nuggets out of nowhere for me. The other way in economics I tried is to make cryonics cheaper - see all the messages robomoon posted to CryoNet, Cold Filter, ImmInst, and related forums. Of cause, there was success to get in contact with Russian providers KrioRus and CryoFreedom, but the communications with them are limited due to their small staffing. Despite or because of there apparently low funding requirements they don't have much business sense to work out an extra cheap contract arrangement with all the details required to make payments easy and convenient. Cryonics and payroll are close together, despite of various individuals telling me how cheap it can be with Life Insurance (as if everyone in the world can easily get a cheap one). Thank you, Melody Maxim, very much for that! So we see it's the wrong time to tell people like me I'm a deathist, let's talk payroll instead! /// -- WM 2010: Top News, Spielplane, Public Viewing-Termine, E-Cards und alles, was der Fan sonst noch braucht, gibt's im Sport-Channel auf arcor.de. http://www.arcor.de/rd/footer.wm2010 Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=32613
