Subject: CRYONICS: Danny Hillis a potential cryonicist?

I was just reading the Fall '92 issue of the _Whole Earth Review_, which
was dedicated largely to a discussion of Artificial Life.  There was a
brief interview with Danniel Hillis, the founder of Thinking Machines. The
main theme of the interview seemed to be that Hillis thinks of current human
lifespans as much too short; he repeatedly said he wanted to live for 10,000
years.  Has anyone contacted this man about cryonics?  He is one of the
biggest names in computer science today and would be an inestimable source
of prestige for the cryonics movement if he were to sign up.
