With the current wackiness at the Federal level, one would think you would have become a big fan of states’ rights (as opposed to Federal.) I have. Well, OK I always was. Note that the nomination makes decisions at the Federal level, based on the US constitution, which doesn’t say anything about euthanasia or cryonics. If states’ rights prevail, some of the 50 states will allow euthanasia for cryonics patients. In that sense this nominee is exactly who we want, ja?<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'>spike<o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div></div></body></html>
