Subject: SCI.CRYONICS More on BC's anti-cryonics law & upcoming election

    I recently posted a message noting that elections in British Columbia
are being held on May 28th. I noted that British Columbia is the only
province or state with a law specifically prohibiting cryonics: Section 57
of the Funeral Services Act. And I requested that cryonicists use this as
an opportunity to urge politicians to oppose Section 57 in their election
campaigns.

    I have since been informed that there is a newsgroup called BC.POLITICS,
but I have been unable to access it. Perhaps it is just local to BC or
perhaps I simply don't know how. If anyone does have access, however, I
would request that the issue of BC's anti-cryonics law be raised in this
forum. And if there is a means for this forum to be access by those outside
of BC, please let us know about it.
