X-Message-Number: 22838 Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2003 08:00:34 -0800 (PST) From: Randall Burns <> Subject: Russia and Cryonics I personally think that exploring how it might be possible to lobby in Russia would be a good idea. I also suspect that some countries like Japan and Korea would be amenable here. If cryonicists could just get 3-5 countries to _firmly_ legalize cryonics, this would be a big step forward. I tend to agree, the political situation in the US is such that there is a good chance the religious right will at some point ban cryonics in the US. Now, the other option here to start exploring allies in the Democratic party. Dennis Kucinich for example is trying to figure out how to appeal to libertarian voters(for example he had a recent positive article about John Gilmore on his blog).
