I have been told that I mis-remembered Mike Darwin's brain-sampling
proposal, which I described in yesterday's CryoNet. The sampling would
have been done before the temperature was reduced to that of liquid
nitrogen. Consequently the sampling would not have revealed information
about the patient after cooldown.

I apologize for the error, although it does not affect my primary point,
that cryonics is a speculative procedure which does not allow us to find
out _exactly_ what we are doing.
