X-Message-Number: 6251 From: (George Smith) Newsgroups: sci.cryonics Subject: Permafrost burials, any news? Date: 18 May 1996 03:24:49 GMT Message-ID: <4njfu1$> About two years ago I was checking into securing a permafrost burial in either Alaska or Canada (probably NOT British Columbia!) for my two elderly parents who yet live. I saw this as a reasonable alternative to cryonic syspension (I am a member of the Cryonics Institute as are the other members of my immediate family) as it will be my responsibility to deal with funeral arrangements anyway and my entire perpective on survival is some chance is better than none. My efforts came to naught. There were no doors which were open for permafrost burials. Has anyone had any success in this area of which I am not aware? If so, please also be kind enough to e-mail me with details at: Thank you, George Smith Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=6251
