Subject: Johnson objectively

Here's a suggestion for a more objective approach to  evaluating Johnson's 
book: 

His  most serious allegations are  that crimes were committed by Alcor or 
its employees--felonies and misdemeanors  including murder. Well, the climate 
of opinion is not so favorable to cryonics  as to discourage authorities 
from prosecuting or to pressure the courts to favor  cryonics. Yet we note 
that, as far as I know, there have been investigations but  no charges against 
Alcor or its people. The only reasonable assumption is that  no serious 
evidence of crime was found. On the other hand, there are court  orders against 
Johnson which are still pending.
