X-Message-Number: 23049 From: "Giu1i0 Pri5c0" <> Subject: Spanish Cryonics Society Date: Mon, 8 Dec 2003 12:44:43 +0100 The Spanish Cryonics Society (SEC) is a non profit Society whose aim is: "to gather all interested persons, and to promote all activities deemed appropriate to achieve, through medical and scientific means, extending or suspending human life while preserving the identity of the person as well as all his physical and mental skills. To achieve this aim, the following activities are performed: Supporting the investigation and the application of all current and future medical and scientific means that may permit achieving the objectives stated; Facilitating the approval by the Spanish Law of all means which may permit achieving the objectives stated; Promoting collaboration with Health Authorities, as well as with medical and scientific societies, nationally and worldwide; An important objective of the Society is ensuring that everyone who has been treated is protected, when appropriate, with biological and legal means to maintain suitable conditions for his preservation, until Science permits his complete recovery." (translated from Spanish by yours truly). I attended a SEC meeting in Madrid on December 6, 2003. We decided to relaunch the activities of the Society, in particular in terms of spreading awareness of cryonics in Spain, establishing contacts with life insurance providers, establishing a solid Internet presence, developing a media strategy, and solving all issues related to Spanish Law and Health Authorities. The Society will offer advice to all members and interested persons for understanding cryonic science, technologies and procedures, contacting cryonic service providers such as Alcor and the Cryonics Institute, selecting suitable life insurance terms, and solving all issues related to Spanish Law and Health Authorities. All developments will be posted to the website of the SEC. The Spanish Cryonics Society wishes to develop collaborations with all the main players in the field of cryonics. In the next few days SEC officers will begin contacting cryonicists individually.
