Deletion of thread would negate further investigation into who started the rumor, and why. Too much to ask me to simply delete at this point because of all the bizarre cryonics stories, this one ranks right up there with all the others which I won't bother listing right now. If I were still in cryonics, I'd follow up myself, but I'm not so I won't. That's about as far as I'll go: Not following up. But deletion of an event like this? I don't think so. I smell a story but I hereby cancel my curiosity on this matter. Over and out.
