Boca Raton Says No To Cryonics
The Palm Beach Post reports that the Boca Raton City Council voted 5-0 to deny cryonics research company Suspended Animation, Inc. permission to operate in the city. One council member said: "It is totally inappropriate for this council to be second-guessing the emergence of science," but he still voted against SAI. As I have said before, cryonics as a field needs new research and new products in order to grow and be able to offer the choice of cryopreservation to more people. Cryonics is the only slim change at a much longer, healthier life in the future for uncounted millions who are too old to wait: we hope to see it prosper.
