In the first half of the l970s, the distance in life expectancy at birth between sub-Saharan Africa and high-income countries was 25.5 years; thirty years later it was thirty years.[4] In the UK the life expectancy gap between the rich and the poor has been increasing by 0.15 years annually since the 1980s.[5]Within metropolitan Glasgow the gap between males in Calton and in Lenzie is 28 years, larger than that between the UK and Africa in the 1970s. Glaswegians from Calton have a shorter life expectancy than Australian Aborigines.[6] Capitalist Russia and the rest of the former Soviet Union are also falling behind in life prospects. In the early l970s - the period of Communist "stagnation" - the life expectancy gap in relation to high-income countries was 2.5 years; in the mid-2000s it is
  almost fifteen years.[7]

Subject: Conference announcement, letter I sent to clients
From: Rudi Hoffman <[email protected]>

Dear cryobloggers, lurkers, and whom it may concern:

I emailed this letter to clients today, and thought it would further be
appropriate here.

Letter follows:

Dear Friend and Valued Client,

The purpose of this email to make sure you are aware of one of the most
important conference events to happen this year in cryonics.

And to do everything in my power to encourage you to attend.

The cost is ridiculously low...150 bucks if you sign early.  This is only
this innexpensive because the Life Extension Foundation and Saul Kent are
heavily subsidising this meeting.  This even includes a bunch of great
meals, with some of the most interesting humans you will ever meet.  Room
rates are super, and room sharing is available and encouraged.  This
conference is immediately after the "teens and twenties" conference some of
you qualify for, so you will also have a chance to meet enthusiastic young
cryonicists staying over from this earlier conference.

The SUSPENDED ANIMATION conference is being held May 20-22 in Ft. Lauderdale
in south Florida.  It will be worth the trip, whether you are coming from
California, New York, or Australia.

The program is going to be superb.  You will meet and personally interact
with the scientists and leaders who are the doing the research to save your
precious life.  Asset protection and preservation stategies will be
discussed.  Logistics concerns addressed.

Most importantly, you will leave with friendships with amazing people which
can last a lifetime...or perhaps centuries.

Whether you signed up up with the Cryonics Institute, or Alcor, or still
just doing your homework about cryonics, you will find this conference
valuable.

Just like success, conferences are not convenient.  You may need to cost
justify this to yourself and your constituency.  Call in that favor from
your significant other.  Conjoin this conference with a Florida vacation.
Winners find ways to make things work.

Please know I heartily and enthusiastically endorse this conference.  I
personally know nearly every presenter, and promise you will be pleased with
your participation if you can possibly make this exciting event.

Above is the announcement with full information.  I look forward to seeing
you in May!

Your Friend, hopefully for centuries,

Rudi

From: =?UTF-8?Q?Jonathan_Despr=C3=A9s?= <[email protected]>

Hello,

I would like to give my opinion about how I see cryonicists...

Not everybody is like that, but I think the best cryonicists on the
planet, firstly, are people who live easily with others.

Easy living people. People living easy.

Life made easy..., that's what we are after all. the good life is the
easy one, and we want to make life easy.
