X-Message-Number: 4453 Date: Thu, 25 May 1995 23:19:17 -0400 (EDT) From: Robin Helweg-Larsen <> Subject: Re: Marketing A necessary, but not a sufficient, condition of interest in cryonics must surely be a sense of Quest, the decision and ability to follow a goal/dream/ideal as a way of life, at the expense of short-term goals and immediate needs. As this is not always appropriate in a nurturing parent (predominantly female in our species, whether for social or genetic reasons is irrelevant), this correlates with the preponderance of males in the cryonics movement... (Just as it correlates with the preponderance of males in the world's sit-around-and-talk-half-the-day activities like taxi driving, owning a coffee shop, politics, philosophy? :-) So where do we target people dominated by a sense of Quest? Hit up some religious seminaries? Robin HL Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=4453
