Subject: Prometheus Project Meeting Reminder

Southern California Meeting: Sunday, October 27, 1996

      The featured speaker at this meeting will be an expert in cryobiology
speaking about the science aspects of the Prometheus Project. Paul Wakfer,
founder of the Prometheus Project will also be on hand to provide
information on other aspects of the Project and to give an update on the
progress of the pledge campaign.

Everyone interested in cryonics or life extension is invited to attend.

      Current work in organ cryopreservation is at an advanced stage of
development with research to reversibly vitrify rabbit kidneys very close
to successful completion. The cryobiologist who is acting as scientific
advisor to the Prometheus Project will describe how this work might be
applied to the reversible cryopreservation of the brain and will also
describe methods for demonstrating the restoration of mental faculties in
such a recovered brain. He will also suggest methods for achieving the
Project's ultimate goal, whole body suspended animation.
