Interesting, I read these books at about 14 and I don't even remember
the term Libertarian. I had forgotten all about the cryonics story
until you mentioned it. I do remember lots of weird stuff and it all
got lumped in together. I also read Prolongevity at about the same time.
I already wanted to live forever but I had not yet shaken off lots of
religious beliefs so pyramid power was about as appealing as cryonics.
I would love to hear the history of how various people on the list came
to hold some of their extropic ideas.
