X-Message-Number: 1337 Date: Thu, 19 Nov 1992 13:00 EST From: LEVY% Subject: Re: answering inquiries I'd say that the rate of people asking me about my Alcor necklace is about six or seven times a year. When someone asks, I reply with the truth, that it's a medical alert tag. If someone asks me what's wrong with me, I respond in one of two ways: If it's someone I like and trust, I tell them all about cryonics, and try to answer the usual questions calmly and enthusiastically as possible. If it's just some busybody asking me, and I'm not in the mood to justify or advertise my personal decisions, I say "It's kind of personal," and leave them guessing. -- Simon Levy Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=1337
