X-Message-Number: 4444 Date: 24 May 95 14:59:33 EDT From: yvan Bozzonetti <> Subject: Forbiden uploading There is now a Cryonet rule against uploading : It is not the place to write about that subject. As a french citizen living in a country where law prohibits good conservation, uploading is the only possible issue. After many hours of ischemic room temperature "conservation", information may be recovered, on the other side,, nanotechnological repair is impossible. So, now I know I'll not sign up until there is a cryonics organization working firmly on the upload subject. Potential US users are not in a better place : Blind nano repair with billions nano robots is no better than any religious faith. Any real scheme would start with an upload of the full body (not simply the brain) in a computer-like system to define a repair strategy, identify the problems and direct apropriate nanosystems at the rigth place. When brain upload needs "only" to track 200 nm protein complexes in synapse buttons on cell membranes, there we need a molecular picture at nanometer scale extending for the full body. Are the pro nano tech really concious of that ? If we want to skip the computer map stage, I see only one possible technology : Miracle repair, so I'll concentrate on miracles in my comming cryonet messages. The message you'll spared : About my contact with a group of some tens of people interested in cryonics as a mean to get uploading. ( I must now tell them cryonics organizations are not the places to look at to stay until uploading is ready to be exploited). Yvan Bozzonetti.
