Britney Spears 'wants to be immortal' ? http://www.news.com.au/entertainment/celebrity/brit/story-e6frfmqi-1225871137047 All though I'd think it would be good, I don't really believe it. The writing is similar to other fake press releases, but at least Cryonics will be getting a lot more hits. Shannon Vyff

Subject: Re: Formalin fixation

Was fixation at room temperature?  Were electron microscope  images made, 
and did they show synapses or microstructure?

One  human brain was used for this study. The brain was fixed in 5% 
formalin  
for two months, rinced and cut in two halves on the

sagital plane.  Both brain halves were sagitally sliced at a tickness of 4 
mm. From each  brain half we selected 8 slices and plastinated them

with P40 using  different immersion and impregnation  conditions.

Subject: Re: Will clause

To prevent evil relatives from seeking to block your cryonic rescue it  
would be good to have a clause in your will disinheriting anyone who tries such 
 a thing.
 
Is there a standard clause, or can a lawyer among us suggest one?

Subject: Sudden VS slow death

I think most people die slowly of illnesses they know they have, and they  
die in a hospital or hospice. Obviously, others go to bed and die in the  
night, or drop dead on the street of a heart attack, or die in accidents. 
 
In order to know how much effort I should put into alarm systems to  
indicate my heart has stopped or the like, can anyone tell me the percent  of 
slow, gradual, expected deaths VS the percent of sudden or unexpected  ones?
 
Thanks,
 
Alan Mole
