Well, my decision is based more on monkey see monkey do than any
in-depth analysis. There are indeed such achives at cryonet, which
I read a couple years ago. They go into some detail on the various
squabblings and fallings-out, which didn't interest me.
I do admire the heroism displayed in the Dora Kent affair, like the
people at Alcor, and feel they have a size advantage. The facility is
also not more than 3 hrs air time from Seattle or San Jose.

Hmmm, I wish I'd received more feedback, as it is rapidly slipping
into the distant past...

??Next year?? Who said anything about next year?
Seriously, I think the planning for EXTRO 4 should commence now.
