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.
