I ran the question, "why doesn't Alcor have a team in Oregon?"  ....in order
to take advantage of the assisted suicide act, by a friend, an attorney,
living in Oregon. He responded that according to the act, it could be done.
He points out that the patient must be a legal resident of Oregon and offers
the following;

Residency may be established by a number of actions, described in the list
below and in ORS 803.200 <http://landru.leg.state.or.us/ors/803.html> andORS
807.062 <http://landru.leg.state.or.us/ors/807.html>. Once you have become a
resident of Oregon, you are required by Oregon law to obtain Oregon vehicle
title and registration and to obtain an Oregon Driver License or Instruction
Permit. Failure to register a vehicle once residency has been established is
a Class D traffic violation. Failure to obtain an Oregon Driver License or
Instruction Permit once residency has been established is a Class B traffic
violation.

If you are uncertain whether you qualify for an Oregon Driver License, ID
Card, or Oregon Vehicle Registration, ask yourself the following questions:

   - Do I remain in Oregon for a consecutive period of six months or more
   each year?
   - Have I enrolled my children in an Oregon public school without payment
   of nonresident tuition fees?
   - Do I pay Oregon resident tuition fees at an educational institution
   maintained by public funds?
   - Have I made a declaration to be a resident of Oregon for the purpose of
   obtaining, at resident rates, a state license (other than an Oregon Driver
   License)?
   - Is Oregon listed as my home of record in my military records?
   - Do I pay resident income taxes to the state of Oregon?

I have, in the distant past, had discussions on this topic with various
Alcor Board Members....the overall thinking was that we did NOT want to be
associated with "euthanasia" in any possible way. Dr. Robert Newport
