Subject: CRYONICS Rainforest species

To: Cryonet

Cryonicists may be passingly interested to note that The Economist (a
weekly British magazine with substantial US and foreign sales) today
published a relatively long editorial endorsing the idea of freezing
endangered species in rainforests. No mention of where the idea
originated. The concept of preserving life by freezing it is thus
gaining wide distribution and respectable endorsements, which of course
can only help cryonics in the long term.
