Some people are interested in uploading, some aren't.  Some people
are interested in cryonics, some aren't.  There are four possible
categories.  All four categories are occupied.  While I believe
that those interested in uploading are more likely to be interested
in cryonics and thus those interested in uploading provide a better
group of potential recruits than those who are not, an interest
in uploading does not by itself automatically imply an interest in cryonics.

It would be incorrect, however, to attack all those interested in uploading
because they don't fulfill our expectations of having 100% interest
in cryonics.  It would also be foolish to attack all male libertarian
programmers in their 30's because most of them are not interested in
cryonics.  While this group is more likely to be interested in cryonics,
there are wide variations within the group.

    Cheers!
       Ralph
