"     Mach's principle tells us that if we flit about the universe at  
high speeds, the universe will age faster than us, rather than the  
other way around."
 
I thought you said speed has nothing to do with aging, only acceleration
does.  And are you saying that since light beams never accelerate 
that photons age the same as the rest of us?

[ Let's give Brian a chance to rephrase his wording and then get back to
  cryonics.  And please don't suggest that the high gravitational red
  shift near a black hole will sufficiently slow down time that a good
  alternative to cryonic suspension is to throw someone into a black
  hole! 8-) - KQB ]
