If you are not signed up for cryonics and ARE killed in any manner, the odds are 100% that you are dead. Change the odds. It isn't expensive (the cost of a pizza per month if you are in your twenties is a close approximation). Make a commitment to life while you are young AND CAN STILL QUALIFY FOR LIFE INSURANCE. Don't take unnecessary gambles with your life. George Smith www.cryonics.org Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=13589
