Foards idea of storage in remote cold places, such as the antartica is the most feasable. Even if frozen humans were not recoverable, it would be nice to have a collection of animals and plants that would be frozen for 1000 to 60,000 years. Such a plan is very feasable if one found a tunnel in some remote and cold place, such as in the mountains of alaska, and just stored tissue there. I wounder if there are any closed mines in alaska that have a temperature below 30 F ? Doesn't seem like it would cost all that much to buy the mineral rights of the mine and just loading the mine up with biological material. If security was a concern you might cave in part of the mine when a section is full - that would be fairly good protection if no costly materials were buried with the samples (i.e. not worth anything enough for "grave robbers" to mess with the tissue collections).
