X-Message-Number: 2592 Date: 08 Feb 94 09:16:27 EST From: Charles Platt <> Subject: CRYONICS Personality Conflicts I note the message by Perry Metzger and thank him for his ongoing efforts to discourage personal friction here. I didn't mind David Cosenza's posting. Since David lives with and has a personal relationship with a director of Alcor, I doubt that he has any sincere interest in joining CryoCare, which is why I didn't bother to send him the last update on our progress. Still, he asked a legitimate question, and I was happy to answer it here. Unfortunately, my answer didn't reach Kevin Brown in time for next-day distribution on CryoNet, but I assume it will be sent out in due course. Perry Metzger and I had some policy disagreements during the formation of CryoCare. I regarded them as the kind of differences that are likely at the beginning of any enterprise where a bunch of dedicated people are trying to reach consensus on the best way to proceed. I'm not sure why he brings this up here, because I thought he and I had agreed to disagree. But it's a wild overstatement for him to use the word "dislike." I find Perry quite likable, and I hope that in due course he does follow through and becomes a member of CryoCare. At one of our meetings, he already gave us some useful advice. --Charles Platt, CryoCare Foundation Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=2592
