X-Message-Number: 7599 Date: Thu, 30 Jan 1997 09:13:50 -0500 (EST) From: Charles Platt <> Subject: It Might Work It occurs to me that "It might work" was the original, implicit motto of cryonics activists, based more on hope than evidence. I assumed that this motto had been superceded by a slightly more informed version along the lines, "It may work, depending on the following variables which we are attempting to measure and control." But to judge from some reactions to the Visser treatment of AIDS patients, "It might work" is still very much an instinctive cryonics response (not just here but on sci.cryonics); and to me, this is one of the great embarrassments of cryonics.
