PIETRZAK 4

John Pietrzak ends his Cryonet # 9508 with two questions. My answer to each is
NO. 

The feedback I have had on "Cryonics: The Probability of Rescue," although not
"statistically significant," suggests that most of those who have read it
carefully found no fault with it. (And, as previously noted, for whatever it
is worth, the original paper was not found by the professionals who reviewed
it to have ANY errors or unjustified conclusions.)

They say there are no bad students, only bad teachers. I wouldn't agree with
that 100%, but in weeks to come I may try to improve the exposition a bit, on
the CI web page, to take account of the impression it left on Mr. Pietrzak.
