The only thing i could think of was to refuse an autopsy. His response was that he would like me to send him something short and authoratative containing the information he would need to understand the issues re cryonics. he is chief of medicine at a major San Francisco hospital with a specialtiy in geriatrics (and several others) but admitted that the only thing he had ever seen on cryonics was various scenes in Star Trek. but being a bright fellow, though very busy, he was willing to read something precise and medical. the only book i know of is The first Immortal and i don't think that is what my doc had in mind. Is the book David mentioned from Alcor suitable for this purpose? Is there any possibility of the video being produced? Is there some other book or article that would be more appropriate? d.
