X-Message-Number: 17472 From: "estropico >" <> Subject: Earliest, POSSIBLE, suspension, in, history Date: Fri, 07 Sep 2001 13:45:44 +0100 Hi everybody, my name is Fabio and this is my first message after lurking for a long time. I'd like to ask the list a question on something I've been wondering about: The earliest cryonic suspensions were carried out in the mid sixties. Dit it start then because of the impact of The Prospect of Immortality or because that's when, for the first time, it became technically doable? I suspect that the process would have been technically feasible in previous times, but have no idea how far back that could be. In other words, what I'm asking is this: at what point in history did the technology necessary for a half-decent suspension became available?
