Most people beyond the age of adult hood do not, or can not, think for 
themselves. They get up in the morning and go to bed at night but they never 
wake up.  This group of people need to learn how to think for themselves.  I 
fear most are beyond help and it is just too late for them to start. There is no
fast answer to the cryonics dilemma.  The only answer I see to increasing the 
cryonics population is through the education of young people.  I mean education 
only in the sense of educating people how to think and not just accepting things
on faith, as is required in religion.  If we could get people to ask for proof,
ALL the time, eventually, , , ,  , well great things could happen.  "Show me" 
and "Prove it" should be a major part of our communication skills.


A word of caution,  if you start using "Show Me" and "Prove It" to the wrong 
people you might/will get into a lot of trouble.  The reason being they can not 
show you and they can not prove it and they become frustrated because you wont 
accept on faith what they say.  So we must begin with young people.  The ones 
that want to know the truth and will say,  "Show Me" and "Prove It".
