Subject: SCI.CRYONICS Non-Partisanship and a gross oversight

    I should add to my recently-posted message that a majority of the
Scientific Advisory Board of the Cryonics Society of Canada are 
Trans Time Members. This is not to say that these people support
The Prometheus Project, only to say that Trans Times members are 
also a respected part of our organization. 

    Trans Time people (through Bio-Time) are doing some excellent
research in cooling whole mammals (hamsters) to temperatures below
that previously acheived anywhere. I hope this research continues,
and I hope that no-one doing cryonics-related research suffers 
because of a redirection of research funds. It may even be that
these projects prove to be of mutual benefit, by raising awareness
of the importance of research and of the research being done and 
perhaps of spin-off discoveries that prove to be of value to the
other researchers.
