Cryonics organization should encourage independent replication instead or playing the victim.

Independent would mean research for which they aren't paying. How should Alcor go about encouraging such research in your opinion?

Doing PR, essentially. I think that if ALCOR acted more as a research organization and less as McImmortality it would have an easier time getting external researchers interested, instead of the current hostile relationship it has with professional cryobiologists.
