Hi,

Whilst I have not seen specific documentary evidence it is my
understanding that both of these criteria are acceptable. The member
is one of longstanding and has shown himself to be careful in legal
and financial matters.

Is there still an Alcor UK suspension team? ACTs? If so who is in
charge? Is there still equipment over here? If so, what and where? Who
does one contact about signing up and suspensions?

Garret
