X-Message-Number: 13282 From: "Brook Norton" <> Subject: donations for Swayze suspension Date: Tue, 22 Feb 2000 13:24:52 -0800 Gary Tripp, in msg 13280, says that James Swayze will be undergoing a risky operation on Friday. Thanks Gary for organizing the donation bookkeeping. I will increase my pledge from $1,000 to $1,500 until the risk of surgery is passed. From what I've read from James, he is a classic cryonicist who appreciates what we are all trying to do, but being a quadriplegic, he simply has no way to raise the roughly $30K that will be required in the short term for suspension. I wish a fund already existed for such cases, but it doesn't. I'm not sure what else to do except request that other cryonicists who are able and of like mind to make a pledge.
