X-Message-Number: 6617 From: Date: Thu, 25 Jul 1996 22:24:54 -0700 Subject: SCI.CRYONICS A Prometheus Pledge -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Today I told Paul Wakfer that I am making a $1000 a year pledge for 10 years to the Prometheus Project. It could be that Nanotechnology is needed for reversible brain cryopreservation, but too many people I respect think otherwise for me to ignore the possibility. Although small by some standards this would be the largest research project ever undertaken in this area, the largest by far. Interesting things will certainly be found, and if the goal is actually reached the world will never be the same. I can't imagine ever regretting this decision, if it works I'll be rather proud of myself for helping, and I might even make some money, gaining immortality wouldn't be too bad either. If the goal is not reached at least I won't be tormented with the thought that it failed because people like me had no interest in it.
