Hi!

I think it s obvious we, as cryonics advocates, need to embrace the Internet 
and use it to spread the good news. We ve done a lousy job so far. A step in 
that direction (for better or worse) has been Rick Potvin s forum(s). Many 
people, maybe you among them, have found Rick s forums trying. I did too. 
But it s a good idea.

I m excited because Jonathan Hinek s  Eschaton Outlook  has taken the lead 
after Rick temporarily shut down his site. Mr. Hinek s success in hosting a 
truly free and uncensored board has been so dramatic that his is now the 
 anchor site  of Rick s own CryoDisc!

Under Jonathan s steady stewardship, I foresee EO s gradual evolution to a 
complete one-stop shop for cryonics discussions and information.:

Among my ideas
*  Sub forums  for cryonics groups, like Alcor and CI, to post information 
and answer questions.
* Public relations area (items for the press, etc.)
* FAQs
* File area
* Direct integration with CryoNet as a sub forum.
* Regular columns from notable cryonicists.
* And eventually a  mute  button where readers can decide for themselves 
which posters they want to hear from based on a customizable profile.

There s a long way to go towards this goal. A real online community can 
begin with this step.
