That's a totally weird connection... why would an ALCOR guy have anything to do w/ PV? or, the other way around? those industry morons can't think outside their little boxes, so how the hell does one get involved w/ a transhumanist organization like ALCOR?

Where do you get the idea that ALCOR is a "transhumanist" organization? Please explain.

ALCOR are promoting cryonic preservation of body, head, and brain matter for future re-animation/ressurection. That's in line w/ current transhumanist thought about creating a post-human being using various new/emerging technologies. It can be said that such a resurrected person will be considred a post-human. Movement-wise, ALCOR has connection to the World Transhumanist Association (they often advertise in H+), and if I'm not mistake, Mr. Bostrom himself has given talks in several of their confreneces.

The judges notes on Lemler in Seals v. England/Corsair Upholstery Mfg., 984 S.W.2d 912 (Tenn. 1999).
Dr. Lemler is a board certified psychiatrist who has no inpatient
psychiatric practice. He formerly practiced in Alabama, but left that
state under something of a cloud when his Group was charged with
bilking a federal program. He settled the government’s claim against
him and surfaced at Peninsula Hospital in Blount County, Tennessee.
He left the practice there in June 1995 and went into business for
himself by sending 140 marketing letters to lawyers announcing that
his services as an expert psychiatrist were available.
Plaintiff’s counsel soon hired him, and uses his services to an unusual
extent. Dr. Lemler sees and psychiatrically evaluates between 48 and
72 claimants represented by Plaintiff’s counsel per year. He charges
substantial fees for his services as a forensic psychiatrist. He does not
practice psychiatry, and maintains no office, other than as we deduce,
a small office in Harrogate where he ostensibly practices family
medicine. His evaluations are generally conducted in lawyers’
offices.

and from the TN Board of Medical Examiners

Lemler, Jerry, 9048: 3/20/01 – Unprofessional
conduct; Gross malpractice or a pattern of continued or
repeated malpractice, ignorance, negligence or
incompetence; Violation of statutes and rules governing
the prescribing of controlled substances. Agreed Order
– Probation for two years.

Too bad ALCOR called. Lemler and the Village are a perfect fit.
