A contra argument to this is that fact that some people are willing to do almost anything to "get in the news" or "get on the tv". A cryonicist willing and capable of giving good interviews can "get on the telly" far more easily than any other "member of the public". (ie apart from people like sportsmen, actors, politicians and so on.) Maybe this is how we could promote cryonics if we were totally cynical about it: Want to get on TV? Sign up, and you can easily make several appearances a year - even more if you get an agent. -- Sincerely, John de Rivaz: http://www.deRivaz.com : http://www.AlecHarleyReeves.com http://www.longevity-report.com : http://www.autopsychoice.com : http://www.cryonics-europe.org http://www.porthtowan.com Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=19950
