Subject: Re: Longevity report and Comments from Cornwall

The current issue of "Comments from Cornwall" (my column in "The 
Immortalist") 
<http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/JohndeR/comments.htm>
and the latest issue of "Longevity Report" have been posted to the Web. 
(note - the Demon posting sometimes takes a day or two to appear. If you 
still get LR60, then try again tomorrow until LR61 appears.)

Longevity report <http://www.longevb.demon.co.uk/lr.htm>
includes the following:

Complacency . 

John de Rivaz looks back at what Longevity Report has achieved and what 
still must be done.

Changes. 

Chrissie Loveday considers the changes that have occurred over the past 
decades, and what most "sensible people" would have said to any predictions 
thereof.

Genetic Manipulation of Lifespan

John K Clark looks at the possibility of using genetic engineering to 
increase lifespan, and at what has already been done in worm experiments.

Fly Experiments 

Douglas Skrecky continues his account of his "hands on" life extension 
experiments.

Mice Longevity Database Douglas Skrecky

Cryonics or Mere Freezing?

Yvan Bozzonetti reconsiders this topic - often debated by newcomers to 
cryonics and here reconsidered in the light of the latest developments.

Hot Cryonics

Douglas Skrecky adds to the debate over whether to use a less drastic 
reduction in storage temperature for cryogenic storage.

Antibiotics and the Fruit Fly Experiments 

Yvan Bozzonetti has read Douglas Skrecky's articles and has some comments 
about antibiotics and life extension in relation to the results obtained.

What Does the Future Hold for Revived People?

Roger L. Bagula is a relative newcomer to the concept of cryonics although 
he has been interested in what he calls "outlaw science" for some while. His 
current views make interesting reading here.
