Subject: Prometheus Project - What it is.

     This is for the two readers of sci.cryonics who asked for a simple
explanation of what the Prometheus Project is.

     The most complete answer is contained in all the messages about it on
Cryonet and in the NG sci.cryonics starting on July 4, 1996. However, in a
nut-shell:
     The Prometheus Project is a project to raise $1M per year for 10 years
for the purpose of doing the scientific research necessary to convincingly
demonstrate and publish in peer reviewed journals fully reversible brain
cryopreservation and, once the money is raised, to do that research. The full
reversibility is to include the recovery of as much memory and other mental
capacities as would be expected from a currently elective, similarly
traumatic, medical operation. The money is being raised in the form of
pledges which are to be turned into legally binding share purchase agreements
with a for-profit corporation which will be formed to execute the project
when $1M per year of pledgers have approved the scientific and business plans
which will be formulated during the next year. Not a cent of pledge money is
*due* before that time. However, any money that anyone wishes to contribute
to defray the expenses of conducting the pledge campaign, formulating the
plans and incorporating the company would be greatly appreciated.
