Subject: Re: Another Patient - Cryomsg #7547

Since CryoSpan had obtained and transported this patient from a mortuary in
Las Vegas on September 27, since we had expended considerable effort
keeping him stored him at dry ice temperature during the 10 weeks it took
the family to make up their minds what to do, since we had carefully packed
him with dry ice into the shipping container supplied by CI after the
family decided not to select CryoSpan for his long-term care, and since we
were *not* one of the "others who prefer not to be named", I was a little
surprised that Cryospan, Mark Connaughton, and I were not even mentioned in
Bob Ettinger's post. For these services CryoSpan received only very minimal
remuneration and there is still an unpaid bill outstanding with the family.
In addition, it should be mentioned that Mike Darwin spent time examining
the patient and several hours in counselling the bereaved and uncertain
members of the family who knew very little about cryonics to begin with,
all with no remuneration.
