First I'd like to thank those who saw fit
to answer/comment on my last information 
request considering early cryonics society 
bootstrap.

Thanks a lot!

Considering fluid propane for perfusion:

1) Fluid propane is a hydrocarbon solvent
which does not solve water but destructs
phospholipide bilayers at any temperature.
This is probably not what you've wanted.

2) provided you suceed to perfuse your
tissue with propane: at desuspension every
single trace of propane has to be removed
from tissue unless you want to get gaseous
propane bubbles upon rewarming.
