An agent of a cryonics organization has been in a newspaper and on a radio 
station saying that when he perfuses dead people for cryonics he uses substances
that have no scientific basis and are not in the cryonics organization's 
manual.


The cryonics organization is not going to try to find out what actually was 
used. It says it doesn't even know how to. Even if it wanted to. Which it 
doesn't.


Now people are calling for discussions about the matter to be "toned down" in 
case possible new recruits get the idea that cryonics is "a small cult of 
amazingly poorly adjusted loonies".

And yet you have trouble understanding why cryonics is not more mainstream.

I hope no one is suggesting whitewashing a cover-up.
