No! This is NOT true. It is a hoax perpetuated over the net, constantly
passed along by credulous people.  As a partner in a large ISP, I am
constantly dealing with REAL legal issues (this isn't one) and with people
who have read this hoax and gotten all upset.

Please do NOT spread it. When you see it, correct the person who spread it.

Please do NOT contact your representatives. That's all we need . . . to
have them think that cryonicists are foolish as well as crazy.
