Subject: SCI.CRYONICS hyperbaric freezing

	I thought Ben Best's post on this subject was excellent,
and I expected it to close the discussion.  If Bob wishes to
continue, I think it's time for some hard numbers on exactly
how much pressue is needed to reduce the freezing point of
water to -80'C.  Even this would be an oversimplification
(and probable pressure underestimate) because as Ben points
out, we are not dealing with pure water, but with a solution
with a eutetic temperature of at least -25'C if not lower.
