Unson gave us an insightful analysis on how Alcor thinks of underfunded grandfathered older members now.
quote
Why now? Well, from my cynical perspective, the alcor directors and employees now see us as a minus, now that they are no longer dependent on our dues to fund alcor. A bunch of cryopreservations could drain that fat 7 million and then how would they be able to fund their own salaries and cryopreservations?
