X-Message-Number: 23646 From: "John de Rivaz" <> References: <> Subject: Frozen Dead Guys Date: Tue, 16 Mar 2004 12:12:24 -0000 Why not have the facility in Norway? There is a growing interest in cryonics in Europe and I have even received email from people in the USA wanting to flee what they see as their litigious and paranoid society if there were a solid and reliable facility somewhere in Europe. [ But I would caution anyone "wherever you go there *you* are." ] Aren't there Norwegian chambers of commerce that would be as accommodating as the Colorado ones? Presumably it was the personality and actions of Trygve that made the Colorado people so accommodating. Repeating the same actions in a country where xenophobes in positions of power can't evict him would seem better than "beating his head against a brick wall" in Colorado. If you want somewhere where the native language is English, well England and Norway are in the EC and I don't think that xenophobes in positions of power are able to stop people moving between countries within the EC these days. England also has more signed up cryonicists than any country other than the USA as far as I am aware. -- Sincerely, John de Rivaz: http://John.deRivaz.com for websites including Cryonics Europe, Longevity Report, The Venturists, Porthtowan, Alec Harley Reeves - inventor, Arthur Bowker - potter, de Rivaz genealogy, Nomad .. and more Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=23646
