X-Message-Number: 7151 Date: Sat, 16 Nov 1996 21:14:29 -0800 (PST) From: Doug Skrecky <> Subject: Re: DNA-RNA Injections Increase Life Span 144% The pilot experiment with DNA-RNA injections has never been replicated. The results are so extremely favourable that I doubt they have ever been seriously considered, even though they were published in a respected scientific journal by a medical doctor. His name was Max Odens and I am told he was in his 70s when he did the experiment which so dramatically extended the life span of some rats. I suspect he died shortly after doing the experiment. Since nobody has ever believed that these results could be factual and the author was dead, this could explain why no attempt was made to repeat the experiment. *OFFER TO CRYONET LIST MEMBERS* I have made a large number of copies of this two page report, and have lots of envelopes and stamps ready. If you are interested in reading this report, but can not find it at your local university, email me your address and I will mail it to you. There exists the possibility that the answer to the life extensionists dream has been quietly moldering away in an obscure journal for over 30 years. Hopefully we will not have to wait another 30 years before it is replicated under carefully controlled conditions. Please note that the report contains the author's London, England address. Don't bother sending any letters of inquiry there. I am told that he no longer resides there and indeed has no London address.
