Question for Alcor and Cryonics Institute and other suspension/research 
organizations:
 

Has there been any attempt at a quantifiable study that charts improvements in 
cryonics suspension technique from the time of Dr. James Bedford's suspension?
 

ie, under ideal conditions, how much better are techiques than they used to be, 
and specifically how much needs to be done- ie, if vitrification works, then how
is thawing procedures?  How about tissue cell recovery from vitrification 
chemicals? 
 

And what is it that we know that needs to be done but have no idea how to do it,
and what do we have theory on but no practical possible technique?
 
If all this were charted, what would it show?
 
thanks, I hope this leads to an interesting discussion.
