Greetings all,

(with my apologies to those who will receive this notice twice through different
mailing groups)


Five of us from the Vancouver/Lower Mainland area have started meeting regularly
(every other month at present, perhaps more frequently down the line) and would
like to invite anyone who is interested to join us. Our group currently 
includes members of both CI and Alcor, as well as 'un-signed' individuals. 


We are following up on some recent successes in identifying funeral directors 
who are willing to take on clients that have arranged to be cryopreserved - 
despite previous reluctance premised on an imperfect understanding of the 
prohibition against marketing and sale of cryonics arrangements in BC. Other 
goals include developing a standby/stabilization kit and protocol, as well as 
developing a relationship with local hospitals, emergency services, and the BC 
Coroners Service to make them aware of the unique and time-sensitive needs of 
individuals who have arranged to be cryopreserved after clinical death.


Please email me if you are interested and would like to learn more. Our next 
meeting will be in late November.

In further news, a club has been started at UBC to promote awareness and 
research in the fields cryonics and life extension. To learn more please visit 
http://ubcclec.wordpress.com - the first meeting is this Wednesday, Oct 6, from 
6-8pm in the Student Union Building, Room 212.

Cheers,
Keegan
