Re: Cryonics is unethical

I am absolutely convinced by your argument. My hundreds of years argument was about the possible factors in favor of going down to much lower temperatures, like possible long periods of stagnation in the technological progress.

Re: Cryonics is unethical

Ok, aldehyde is superior, but for how many years? Cryopreserving at -196 C we can have an inferior connectome for many hundreds of hundreds of hundreds of years: for how many hundreds of years we would have a superior connectome by keeping the lipids solid at -20 C? It will be possible to be more pr...

Re: Kurzweil uploads

I would add a 30 June 2044 event on my Google calendar in order to properly continue this discussion and verify if Kurzweil was too optimistic or not. If you will still be so determined perhaps your forum will survive to the Google accounts as we know today, but the will of the people involved in te...

Re: Why not invite Ben Best?

Curiously, in August 2019 CI newsletter the name of Ben Best is at page 15 as no less than “Speaker” in name of Oregon Cryonics. At page 20 it is specified: “Ben Best will present on Oregon Cryonics, despite not being affiliated with that organization. For more info about Oregon Cryonics go to http:...

ECMO as last will

Yesterday Dr. Sparks wrote “ nobody on staff who realizes that they could cannulate quickly ” . Maybe I bypassed too many steps with my usual "connectome", but I thought of some ECMO into his vehicle , even for the patients who would desire to be moved from a possible hospital intensive c...

New electron micrographs?

As the Electron Micrographs page itself states, it “ was an ideal lab setting which has only a limited resemblance to a human case ”. I wonder why there is still so limited literature on neuron/synapses state "immediately" after death, but I remember there was an interesting OC case report...

Re: Website updated

Congratulations for your update. I hope that you will find a way to get a stable (and cheap) ITS, but at least I’ve had the opportunity to know of your “complexity difficulties” as a “change” when I’m still alive. Neglecting member growth can be efficient for a small facility, but if your facility w...

Re: Biostasis

I think that any Ettinger’s “understanding” was much more "scientific" than any Max Moore’s “scientific understanding” (though he has available much more modern technology knowledge).

Re: Wait but Why

Although I slightly edited my post just while you were replying, since I quoted your “internal cooling” I think it was clear that I was talking about "convective induced hypothermia" (perhaps at lower temperatures than these/those techniques).

Re: Wait but Why

“ internal cooling is too complicated ” In "My Time of Dying" I’d like assisted suicide under the well-known/widely-used induced hypothermia: any experimental/exotic drug into my still pumping blood would be better than any “well-used” pure barbiturate. That’s "legally" too compl...

Reanimation Fund options?

I’ve read Reanimation Fund as “ providing facilities for cryonics use ”, and I’d like an overfunding part optable –conditionally– for a widely-known facility, as "warranty" supporting the " green-segment " when “ owning [y] our buildings ” might be not enough. In particular, I've...

Re: Helping the cryonics cause

“You can't volunteer or donate or do anything else that will change the status quo at all.” “What action should you take? I have no idea … other than … trying to ensure my [your] own survival.” Spreading some knowledge about cryonics could help our rational confidence in some 1% chances, and our nat...
