I think this could be a winner (even though, to the cryo expert and lexicographer alike, `cryopause' presumably means the temporary *suspension* of cooling - exactly the opposite of what is intended here). Damien Broderick I personally think "cryopause" is a good term but also "lifepause" could be a good descriptive word to show that we intend only a pause from life and are not committing suicide. The very word "cryo" can turn off alot of different groups. Besides chosing the right terms and paradigms we need major improvements in cryosuspension technology(and they could be here now courtesy of 21st Century Medicine), a hundred million plus to advertise and mount a legal challenge and celebrity boosters like Arnold and Bruce!
