X-Message-Number: 3031 Date: 28 Aug 94 18:45:45 EDT From: David S Pizer <> Subject: CRYONICS On Mr. Wakefer's dispute with Dr. Merkle on the definition of cryonics: I agree with Paul Wakefer AND Ralph Merkle so I think both of their definitions should be incorporated into one and I have taken the liberty to combine both of their remarks. Perhaps the following combined definition would satisfy all. "Cryonics is the technique of freezing the body of a legally-deceased person for storage until medical technology advances sufficiently to repair and revive them" except in the case of Paul Wakefer where "Nowhere is there even a hint that however advanced the technology is, the information may not be there to repair and revive."
