Subject: Introduction to Cryonics in Sunnyvale this Sunday
Date:	Thu, 11 Jul 1991 12:18:29 PDT

There will be an introduction to cryonics in Sunnyvale
(roughly between San Jose and San Francisco) on Sunday, July 14.

DATE:  Sunday July 14
TIME:  7:00 pm
PLACE: The house of Ralph C. Merkle,
       1134 Pimento Ave
       Sunnyvale, CA 94087
       408-730-5224

A general introduction to cryonics, including technical and
non-technical issues, as well as pragmatic issues like how to
get and fill out the forms for signing up, getting insurance, etc. etc.
Questions welcome.  There is a small library of videotapes, books,
and literature.  The debate on Larry King Live between Southard
(a cryobiologist hostile to cryonics) and Mike Darwin and Brenda
Peters is a perennial favorite.  Alcor's new handbook is also now
available, and provides the best single introduction to cryonics
currently available.

After the talk, there will be ample opportunity to ask questions,
talk with others (both members and those thinking about it), and
generally socialize.

There will be a business meeting of Alcor's Bay Area Chapter starting
at 4:00, and a pot-luck dinner from 6:00 to 7:00.  Those interested in
attending these functions are welcome.
