X-Message-Number: 1219 From: Newsgroups: sci.cryonics Subject: <None> Message-ID: <> Date: 20 Sep 92 01:42:16 -0500 I see lots of stuff here on why cryonics may be a good idea, but I see precious little regarding the nuts & bolts technical issues involved. What are the promising agents to prevent the growth of large ice crystals ? If they seem insufficient, what about going to levels that would be fatal if a fully alive person ingested them - but would be protective to a frozen person ? Liquid nitrogen storage is too expensive ... What could we do with storage at higher, say -20 degrees, temps or even storage at just above the freezing point ? How do we combat crystal enlargement or fungus growth ? The truth of this approach is not in its philosophy ... but in its ability to perform as expected. -- J.
