Agreed, both have made some pretty great contributions to the field and they
deserve recognition, but that's not the point! What I've been *trying* to 
drive home in my posts on the subject of risks is that THEY SHOULD NOT BE 
IMPOSED ON FROZEN PATIENTS! At least, not without so much as a warning!! If 
the organizations that apply risk would just have the integrity to clear the 
air and *admit* that there is a risk, make complete disclosures, and warn 
their members and prospective members, then I'd feel much more at ease about 
all this. It isn't an unreasonable request considering the consequences.

Ever forward,

David
