Subject: Join us! We are Metamorphosis Society.

Hello, This is Mizuho. I post this mailing list for the first time.
I'm Japanese. In Japan, CRYONICS is not so popular, but some people are 
interestead in CRYONICS including me.
We argued again and again how we can reanimate.
And we decided to organize this society.
Join us ! 
I want mails from anybody who wants to take part in the society,
and who is interestesd in.

**********   Introduction to the Metamorphosis Society   ***********


Choice Between Two Options

There is no knowing if the future is filled with bliss or desperation. We     
have two alternatives to choose from; viz, to participate in an operation to  
produce a bright future or to let existing forces drift yourself away. This   
page (message) is designed for the sake of the people with the view of        
choosing the former. Furthermore, this is intended toward those of you who    
wish to travel to the future themselves, so-called "Cryonists."

Creating a Bright Future

My fellow cryonists and those of you who are interested in cryonics, it is    
quite nesessary that we should try our best in order to make the future best  
we could. With that and becoming a person eligible for being re-born into a   
brand new, completely different self, we will travel into the future.

Join Us!

Our objectives are three-fold. Come join us!
We will
(1) Take action for the future and take over to the future those who wish to  
live in the future by retaining their necessary information, memories, till   
reanimation is practicable;

(2) Reanimate members as "what they had been" as reanimation becomes          
practicable;

and

(3) Try our best to make the above-mentioned objectives achieved as early as  
possible.

What does reanimate them as "what they had been" mean ?
It means to reanimate people in accordance with their former level of conduct 
and ethics.

The future is not for the rich who don't believe in evolution. The            
Metamorphosis Society consists of people who trust in the future and go to    
the "limits" of their ability for the sake of the future.

What's the "limits," then ? Take this as an example. If you try to carry your 
wealth to the future for your own use, prosperity, you are not going to the   
"limits" of your ability. You should offer the money for the good of the      
world peace or for the research on reanimation. If you leave some of your     
money for your wife and kids, it is regarded as good. However, if you are     
thinking of taking your money to your future self, you are out of the list of 
eligible members at once. Only money you can hold until you are reanimated in 
the future is that which you need to retain yourself till then.

Also, if you have done harm to someone or yourself, you will be reanimated to 
be regarded as so. You can't be made different.

When will the time of reanimation come ?
We think it comes around 2150. We presume we can restore memories 
and put them into any reanimated form with nanotechnology    
around the year 2100. But we need to wait a little longer till the cost goes  
down to a reasonable level. If you are a member, you don't have to pay for    
the reanimation. Future members will take care of it. For that as well, we    
should keep the Society running and growing.

Activities for Now
One of our two main activities is linking members with a mailing list.        
Joining the list, members can communicate and share what they are doing for   
the future. You can also establish a cooperative group if such is needed, but 
it should be established on a member's (or members') own initiative and       
basically the Society does not get involved in it.

A member should declare he/she will prepare a certain amount of money for the 
development of the Society, the usage of which will be discussed among and    
decided by the members through mailing into and out of the mailing list.

The other main acitivity is to contribute to the realization of reanimation   
with the money we receive. Once you declare your promise, you have to put out 
the share according to what the Society decides except only one instance. The 
instance is when you leave the Society. Also, it is needless to say that you  
are not asked to contribute more money than you declare you are donating. 

You might want to note that the amount of money you are contributing may      
influence the position of what you have been. In an extreme example, some may 
declare "zero" for the contribution and they may be banking on a revolution   
by others.

News Letters
The Metamorphosis Society does not issue news letters for members regularly.  
Rather, we should enlighten non-members on our belief, although we            
irregularly send out news letters to the members through the mailing list.

We Say Again "Join Us !"
The mailing list of the Metamorphosis Society is maintained with the money    
the members contribute. We presume our fund will allow us to run the Society  
for the next ten years. We want you to participate in the activities. Travel  
with us to the future! Create and share it with us! The future is for our     
children but at the same time it's for us, too.


Send your e-mail to 
You will be added to the mailing list.
Again, share the future with us!
