X-Message-Number: 14852 From: "john grigg" <> Subject: cryonics in Europe & Asia Date: Mon, 06 Nov 2000 00:28:04 GMT I have a question for the list members, especially those who are well-travelled Americans or European citizens. Which European nation would be the most fertile ground to start a homegrown cryonics organization? I realize England already has an Alcor outpost. But what about the continent itself? Would France be a good place(supposedly they have a lust for the good life which could be continued with cryonics)? Switzerland(an obsession with fiscal and physical safety and security)? Or how about an eastern european nation like Poland or Romania where costs would be cheaper? And what is the deal about Germany(a very advanced nation) having a supposedly very anti-cryonics public? I would think the "analytical" Germans would flock to cryonics more then any other european would. I also wonder about Asia. I am amazed that Japan does not yet have a cryonics provider considering they are in some technical ways a world leader. But with the Metamorphosis Society gaining strength I bet it is just a matter of time. They have some excellent people in the organization. I think with some assistance from American organizations we could see the other parts of the developed world develop their own cryonics providers. But who will be first to do it? The continental European or the Japanese? My best wishes to them both.
