Subject: discovery channel

 i saw the discover channel piece, and i thought it was very scientific. 
as i recall, they interviewed ralph merkle, a leading nanotechnologist
as well as other key people from cryonics organizations, and the whole
piece seemed very very positive. some have said it looked more like faith
than science, and i hate to be the barer of bad news, but right now
that's about all cryonics is is faith since no one can positively prove
that we are our brains. if you don't have faith that it will work, you 
may as well just forget it.
