I have been away on travel, and when I came back I found interesting emails by Darwin and others on the risks of having less than optimal suspension because of the circumstances of death. The list given by Darwin is rather grim, and I was hoping to hear from Ettinger and CI on the same subject. If I missed the relevant post, please let me know. My two basic questions are: 1. Can CI provide some statistics on the percentage of suspensions done under near optimal conditions and the main reasons for non-optimal ones. 2. I assume that some of us have given some thought and have taken action to reduce the chance of problem when we are suspended. Possibly cryonicists with short life expectancy due to age or illness. I would appreciate if anybody is willing to share information on the precautions they are taking. Rafi Haftka Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=18999
