I don't understand why it was necessary for people to give money to the Venturists. Alcor can accept the money directly. I see this as an unnecessary layer of complexity. Like the Aurora victims, I wonder how much of the donation money will be spent by the Vneturists on their overhead for this project...

Alcor would then have to give the money to CI if the amount raised was sufficient for a CI preservation but not an Alcor one.
