X-Message-Number: 13552 From: Date: Fri, 14 Apr 2000 11:58:13 EDT Subject: Re: CryoNet #13535 Dave's land John deRivaz suggest to use real estate loans to finance cryonics suspension. This may be the "killer ap." (bad words for the subject:-) of cryonics marketing. What about a first try in John's land near Portowant (sp?). My two pence along these ideas: I suggest to sell virtual houses. When you buy one, you may stand in a house of a network. You could stay for example four months in arizona, then move for 3 months to southern UK, go to France's south for 2 months, jump in Australia for some time and end the year in Russia. In each place there would be a cryonics service. You own one house but you use many in a year. Travel is now a life mode for retired, be "glued" to a single place may be tedious for many. twenty years from now it may be simply unthinkable. YB. nomy. The night air is very clear. >I think it would be nice to have an astronomy building, even though it >might have to start out small.?? > I am building an owen to bake 40" blank glass (to put them in the good shape and supress internal tensions) and I can polish mirrors up to 80". My biggest completed mount up to now is a 33" system, alt-az on equatorial plateform. This summer I hope start a klin for making 160" blanks. It will be used too for heating a 12 kW metal vapor laser. My own site is near a wild area, with sea and salt lakes nearby, I 'll put here the most offensive items, such big lasers pumped by shock waves:-) If there is an astronomy componment in your project, I am a candidate to bring a 1 m telescope.
