Subject: Cryonic Suspension vs Cryopreservation
Date: Sat, 8 Oct 2005 18:54:50 -0700

I was emailed off list with an good reply.  I was pointed to the definition
of cryopreservation at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryopreservation.  So
cryonics has adopted the established scientific term from cryobiology.  And
it seems that this has happened as a result of cryonicists getting involved
with actual scientific research.  It also makes more sense because it does
not imply that it's reversible.
 
I'll use cryopreservation.  I was just curious about the change.
