Thanks, both.  (I thought I'd sent an earlier email but it's not 
showing up in my inbox.)

I hope it doesn't sound too horribly insensitive to say this, but if 
anyone can think of a definite, confirmed, unamgiguous case of an 
atheist sacrificing their life while being current in a cryo 
arrangement, it would be the ultimate counterevidence to the "selfish 
cryonicist" meme.  I wish I didn't have to look for a completely 
airtight case, but you know the kind of debaters we're up against. 
I.e., "Maybe John Perry thought better of your damned crazy idea and 
that's why he wasn't signed up any more."
