Sorry Kennita, but I would not do any VIDEO, not film, about the FDGD. I do not do Ghost things or comedy. I do mini documentary's and try for integrity and honesty in what I present. I am not saying that FDGD lacks these qualities. FDGD, I think has been beaten to death with video and film Nothing new there. I have stated before that I would be disappointed if ALCOR or any other reputable cryonics organization were to be, in any way, connected with FDGD. It is hard enough to present cryonic suspension in a credible way to an uninformed audience. The other problems are money, script, time, production crew and the list goes on. I see no way to finance this project. I can't, can you? Here are a few facts about the ALCOR adventure video: 35 people directly involved one way or another 55 e-mails. 25 pages of scripts and re-writes. 5 hours for Gregory Prentiss. 200 hours for Billy H. Seidel. Gregory Prentiss actually spent more time and so did Fred and Linda Chamberlain. You can not just go out and make a video. I hope you can now see some of the problems now. I invite comments from other folks on what they would expect from a new video. Billy H. Seidel 928-203-0161 Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=23887
