Subject: Perry & Darwin questions

Thanks to Mike Perry for #5105 on dendritic spines. May we use this for THE
IMMORTALIST?

Thanks to Mike Darwin for #5096 on the status of Greg Fahy's work and related
matters. May we use this (or excerpts etc.) for THE IMMORTALIST? 

Wistful thought: Maybe Fahy and Ruggera will get the Nobel for the kidney
work. Seems important enough, in light of the number of kidney transplants
needed. Probably 10 years or more down the line, even if it happens; but it
would be an enormous boost for cyonics, in several ways.

On hyperbaric numbers etc.: Mike Darwin says he has a hyperbaric chamber and
accessories maybe large enough for a human brain. Mike, do you have
experimental numbers on pressures needed for cooling (say) rodent brains,
without freezing, down to temperatures where freezing will be complete when
the pressure is released? If not, do you or your associates have time and
interest in finding these numbers? If you need money, how much?
