I am curious about the method which uses potassium cyanide. I'm ashamed to say I've only read about it on websites and not directly from your book. I am 5'6" and weigh about 100 lbs, so I'm quite slender. Would this expedite the process if I were to choose this method? I have had to struggle to maintain this weight as I have no appetite and it typically falls in the two digits. I have also considered just letting myself starve,but would prefer a faster method. I am also concerned with the amount of suffering involved using potassium cyanide. My first choice would be pentobarbital and I could conceivably get to Mexico,but if they found me crossing the border with it I can't imagine that would be good. Please advise. Thank you. Lulu ANSWER Cyanide is very difficult to obtain; while it is quick it is painful in the extreme. Not advised for <a href="http://www.finalexit.org/ergo-store" rel="nofollow">self-deliverance</a> from a terminal or hopeless illness. I have heard that people crossing the border from Mexico into USA beforehand pour the pentobarbital into another bottle, throwing away the original. Mr. Humphry,
