Eivind Berge suggested that perhaps "The Raft of the 'Medusa,'" as painted
by Gericault, would be
the most apt metaphor for Alcor (and presumably any other cryonics
organisation)

find it on http://192.41.13.240/artchive/g/gericault/raft_of_the_medusa.jpg

It looks as though it occupants didn't bother too much with legal issues and
discussions about whether they would ever reach land before boarding it as
the Medusa sank.
