X-Message-Number: 16373 From: Date: Mon, 28 May 2001 12:56:46 EDT Subject: Who are the readers? Who are the cryonet readers? I put them in 3 groups: 1/ The contributors. The most active are well known and it seems, when we wrote a message that these are the only readers. 2/ What I would call the moles, there are two mole kinds: A) The shallow moles: they are cryonet subscribers who, for one reason or another never write anything. Only the list manager know them (at least their e-mail address!). B) The deep moles: They read messages on archives somewhere on Internet, some of them are robots sent here by indexing services or the NSA, CIA, DIA,... 3/ The time readers, they may be robots, unborn people or anything else. Some of them may be very interesting, because they may have to rule who would be brought back to life. I think we may count on two things: The world and the technology will be very different when cryonics state will become reversible and before any work in this way would be done, most data on the person would be searched and studied. One of the first place to search would be the Cryonet archives. So, anything you write here will stay for may be centuries and will tell to the distant future operators what is your knowledge, psychology, capacity to adapt and so on... For some time I have spoken about a technological use of a finite dimensional version of Schrodingeer?s quantum mechanics. This is quite on the science ground, but the potentialities are so large that it is the foundation of a new kind of technology. It looks as the old black magic, so I see no reason to take another name. May be it would looks more respectful to present day readers if I had labeled it: Black Computer Aided Technology :-) Indeed, what I have described is one kind of black cat, there may be other. It seems that idea was received with some cold, a distant reader some centuries from now could deduce some adaptability knowledge from that. That open the problem of what you write **and** what you don?t! Beware the 3rd reader. Yvan Bozzonetti. Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=16373
