What do you think about (computer) networking the entire community? If the
proper provisions were made during the planning phases of residential
construction, future implementation would be less complicated and more
cost-effective, especially considering the potential returns. Using this
backbone, community members would not only have the perks of high speed
Internet connection, (which is becoming an increasingly important
consideration for prospective residents these days - for me, it was my
PRIMARY concern when choosing an apartment :-) ) but one might also be able
to use this as a basis for the implementation of a large-scale
bio-statistics monitoring network, or something of that nature. I'm not
really certain how people would react to this latter idea, but I imagine it
could be done.

I will have to pass your excellent suggestions on to David Pizer. I
am not sure to the extent he plans on having an internet connection
infrastructure set up. David has mentioned that he wants a large-scale
bio-monitoring network set up in the later stages of the project.
Ironically, you could have people dying and being left to decay in the
middle of a cryonics enclave, if you didn't have such a system implemented!
best wishes,
John Grigg
