After I decided there was no point in further delay (I'd been thinking about it for decades) I wrote to Alcor asking for the paperwork. I got a thick packet of papers a few days later, I signed them and got everything witnessed and notarized at a UPS store and then sent them back to Alcor the same day and that was that. Well... almost. There was also the small matter of payment, neuropreservation costs $80,000; most people pay for it with a life insurance policy with Alcor as the beneficiary, it only ends up costing them a few dollars a day. I elected to do things a little differently and deposited $80,000 into a interest bearing account of Alcor's; if I should change my mind and decide to resign from Alcor I would get that money back plus interest. In addition there is a $710 per year membership fee, but as immortality lottery tickets go this price doesn't seem exorbitant. > I can sleep a little easier knowing we can all look forward to your posts > for millions of years to come. :-) > Oh dear I hadn't thought of that, I hope I can still find new things to say after 6.02*10^23 posts.
