It has come to my attention that certain companies in the Foundation's employment peer group have been offering ova cryonics as a family planning benefit:

I recommend that the Foundation explore gender-inclusive cryonics solutions. I understand that supercooling vitrification freezers such as those manufactured by ABI, Ltd. of Chiba, Japan called CASfresh or Cells Alive System may be of some interest.

Ok, everyone can go home now. The competition for most abstract suggestion on Wikimedia-L is now closed. As much as I would love for us to discuss our own personal preferences in 'supercooling vitrification freezer' manufacturers... Perhaps if the WMF purchased their own cryogenics system for the aforementioned company and instead it in the office cleaning cupboard, staff coud keep the after-work drinks chilled in there too? In the mean time, as a personal challenge, see if you can include the phrase "gender-inclusive cryonics solution" in a casual conversation without anyone noticing.

This does it to me. Dear list moderators, could you please pretty please consider putting James on moderation indefinitely? This behaviour has gone on long enough, and clearly resulted in a net negative contribution to the movement.
Thanks.

Hmmm. James and Liam just put a smile on my face, and honestly, if we're going to have off-topic discussions here, I prefer these over intra-community flame wars any day.
James, it may not be appreciated- or appropriate, actually- on wikimedia-l, but I would love it if you put an op-ed making your case for "gender-inclusive cryonics solutions" on my user talk page for the Wasted Times.

Here's a compromise between those who want to discuss cryonics and those who think it's weirdly off-topic: We'll freeze this thread.

I recommend that the Foundation explore gender-inclusive cryonics solutions. I understand that supercooling vitrification freezers such
as
those manufactured by ABI, Ltd. of Chiba, Japan called CASfresh or

James, I hope you'll understand why I've decided to screen your posts for a while.
