X-Message-Number: 19853 Date: Tue, 20 Aug 2002 10:46:23 -0700 (PDT) From: Randall Burns <> Subject: Cryonics Milestones I think we'd agree that it will be a while before anyone is revived from cryonic suspension. An important question though is what will be the major signs that practical cryonics is near? IMHO these might include: successful freezing and use for transplant of a human kidney(one of the more difficult organs to freeze and an area of active research). revival of a mammal from cryonic suspension =============================== What I would personally like to see here are a series of inter-connected milestones(the sort of things that might go into a PERT chart)--some of which are fairly short term milestones. These could be entered into www.ideosphere.com for evaluation and we'd start to get a more realistic and adjustable timetable here. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
