Hello Extropian Lunatics (and I mean this in the *best* possible use of the
word:))
Does anyone know how to contact Arthur C. Clark? He is still my favorite
Sci-Fi Author, and I would like to let him know about the ALCOR cryonics
option. If there is any chance of saving this forward thinking brain we
should do so, IMO.
We have already lost Sagan, Feynman, and Asimov to entropy and heat death.
These promulgators of extropian and scientific memes should have been
preserved for possible reanimation, dammit!
Especially Sagan...what a wonderful mind...I am in awe of his intellect and
ability to express and popularize science and scientific thinking every time
I read another of his books.
And what of Gene Roddenberry, Father of Star Trek? I saw him in person at
Ball State U. in IN about a zillion years ago. While S T may be bogus as
"Hard" Sci Fi, the Humanist and Secular future Roddenberry envisioned was
way ahead of his time. And his brain is toast!
Does this tick anyone else off? The leading skeptics, agnostics, forward
thinking minds of our age have not chosen the possibility of cryonic
suspension.
SO, HERE IS MY CAMPAIGN.... LET'S FREEZE CLARK!
Thanks,
Rudi Hoffman
