Subject: SCI.CRYONICS Timothy Leary

Timothy Leary is a member of CryoCare. We are aware of recent reports that
he is considering death by suicide, and we have warned him that this could
create difficult legal issues and would almost certainly result in an
autopsy that would make it impossible for us to provide a high-quaity
cryopreservation. Charles Platt (vice-president of CryoCare), Carlotta
Pengelley (a nurse who is also the member services administrator for
CryoCare), and Mike Darwin (president of BioPreservation) are trying to
resolve this situation. We cannot currently predict the outcome. Obviously
our main purpose is to preserve Timothy Leary to the best of our ability,
but we must also respect his personal wishes.
