The Venturist Organization is going to become more active and help propel the cryonics movement forward in a more quick and efficient way. The Venturists will help the cryonics movement by bringing the cryonics message of biological immortality to the public. We will do this by engaging radio and TV talk shows and offer up Venturist members to be interviewed. We hope to flood the talk shows and news shows with interviews of reasonable Venturist members who are willing to persuade others to "take the venture to the future." If you remember, we chose the word "Venturist" because a "venture" is an adventure with some risk. That is what cryonics is about.
We will spread the cryonics message by building The Venturist magazine into a publication that can be sold in news stands and will be attractive and informative. Starting with the July 1st issue The Venturist magazine will come out every month. We want to make the magazine more like a commercial publication. Mike Perry is looking into a nicer cover perhaps with color.
We will look for people from the cryonics movement to write articles and to find other articles (on the latest life extension practices) that we can also summarize.
The Venturist advantage is that we can promote our beliefs from the forum of an organization that does not profit when someone gets cryopreserved. There is no perceived financial gain for us as cryonics grows.
Our first step is to rebuild our membership. If you would like an
application, please contact John Grigg at starman2050@lycos.com
Please let John know if you would be willing to be interviewed on radio and TV talk shows.
Please let John know if you would be willing to submit articles to the
magazine.
