Hi Folks: This is for anyone in the USA who has the time or inclination to watch television. Have you noticed the recent commercial for Sonicare, the electric toothbrush? It starts off with a spaceship of some sort approaching Earth. The next scene shows an attractive young lady arising from a suspended animation chamber with the off screen narration saying something like: "You've been asleep for seven years.... I thought this was a promising development in the general culture regarding the recurring science fiction theme of suspended animation, I hope that there will further sight and sound bytes like this one, These may eventually help shape more general acceptance of cryonics, when the positive results from current and future research brings us perfected "stasis" or suspended animation. I think I"ll go price that electric toothbrush! Best Regards, John B. Krug Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=10752
