Hello All:

   You may remember about two weeks ago I mentioned that I wrote a letter
to the editor of my local paper about cryonics only to not have it
published. Than they published a moronic article about cryonics. I
suggested that cryonet readers write to the editor of this paper. James
Swayze did and I am not sure if any others did. I was surprised to find
my letter published in todays paper. I am not sure if it was just lag
time or that so many cryonet readers wrote to this editor that he was
shamed into printing my letter. Anyway to James and any others that wrote
letters, I just wanted to say thank you.

   To Kennita, in one of your postings you said that the Godless
Americans  march was a bad idea because some radical religious freak may
drop a bomb in the middle of it. Yes it is true some radical creep could
do something to cause harm to the marchers, however you do not have be
participating in an atheist march or protest to be attacked by religious
radicals. September 11th 2001 proves that. Just being in places such as
Disney in Orlando where many people go puts you at risk.

   I agree with Marks posting, cryonet#19648, Alcor and CI are barking up
the wrong tree if they think religions are their allies. The only reason
religions have not attacked cryonics much is because we are such a
micro-minority that we are almost nonexistant. With the Ted Williams saga
I look for that to change.

   Mark Buddle wrote that death must scare the hell out of some atheists
knowing what it means. What's to be scared of? The end of anything sucks,
however it is nothing to fear.

Long Life

Joseph
