He said he grew up in London. What he had to say is something I've known with my "fish" fo ran an long time and most likely anything that goes into "hiberanation" also...that it is the cooling down of the body that attirbutes to it...and the slow re-juvenation of it to normal body temperatures. When this is done...the body he says responds by kick starting the heart to work again...as he said...you have to eleminate the problem of why the heart attack in the first place, which can be attcheived in this clinically dead phase...and the person has to be in good enough health they arenot diseased as the cause of the intial heart attack. He said they have th emachines now to pump in sequence wiht the heart outside of the body to warm up the body slowly...and to keep it cool, as he says the "coming back" is like the re-entry phase of an space capsule on the outside to the brain, so it must be done slowly...the blood in re-instituted back into the body. He says mankind has the abilty to live to 150 years old. Healso says this is an challege as to what goes on "on the other side" also. They are still studying that phase. He said that most of the ones thought dead in the Titantic disaster most likley would of lived with the procedures they know now to bring them back. Back when I had my "fish" out back..in the winter we put one board across the pond for air and would let it freeze over...though in an almost slow semi-frozen state sometimes, by spring they always would come out of things and the board was there to warm up from the sun and provide both air to them if needed.... and to do this very thing...slowly reivie them. |

On the original Titanic, first class passengers could enjoy the ship's swimming pool, gymnasium, squash racquet court and Turkish baths. For less energetic passengers, the ship’s orchestra played background music and performed in various public rooms during the day. Deck games such as shuffleboard and quoits (ring toss) and board games, including chess and backgammon, were available to second class passengers. There was not much in the way of formal activities for third class passengers. However, Titanic’s Poop Deck was a popular place to meet, relax and play deck games. |
