I was sorry he left the list after a few years. And I'm sorry he wasn't cryopreserved; he maintained the probability of success was too low to worry about, but I felt that the probability of success was not low it was unknown, all you could say was it was greater than 0 and less than 1. So if you have the money as Tim did then there was no downside. If it didn't work you wouldn't be any deader. But I could never convince him.</font> </div><div class="gmail_default" style=""><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style=""><font size="4">John K Clark</font></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div lang="EN-US"><div class="gmail-m_-7942982779533429109WordSection1"><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> </p></div></div>
