X-Message-Number: 4216 From: (Brian Wowk) Newsgroups: sci.cryonics Subject: Re: Autopsy Horror Exposure - video available Date: 10 Apr 1995 18:16:59 GMT Message-ID: <3mbsmr$> References: <> Selling cryonics by invoking gut-level visceral reactions to other post-mortem procedures like autopsy is not a good idea. I'm afraid it's too much a case of the pot calling the kettle black. Cryonics (like any major medical procedure) is not exactly a pretty sight either. In fact it is very ironic that you mention chiseling away at someone's skull to remove a brain during autopsy. This exact same procedure is sometimes used to recover brains for *cryonic preservation*. Cryonics should be compared to other procedures on the basis of potential outcome, not esthetic appearance. ---Brian Wowk Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=4216
