	David Stodolsky asks if reversible suspension can be achieved for
half a billion dollars.
	The answer, in my opinion, is that reversible suspension can be
achieved for far less than half a billion dollars and that major headway
in controlling aging in humans can be achieved as well for less than half
a billion dollars.
	Stodolsky talks about "political moves aimed at capturing
government resources" as "making sense".  I agree.  I'd love to "capture"
the taxes that immortalists in the U.S. are forced to give to the
government and use this to fund research, but I believe it would be more
fruitful for me to continue to spend my time making and investing my own
money in research.
