I cannot accept this as an answer.  The project is supposed to discover
how to cryopreserve brains.  Not how to keep cold brains in a warm body.
The former sounds doable.  The latter doesn't, at any cost.  I am no
expert on biochemistry.  But I know a few things about heat flow.  I
used to write thermal simulations for a living.

I am giving the project's advocates a chance to answer my objections,
since I respect some of them very highly.  I would very much like to
become an advocate for the project.  But I cannot become enthusiastic
about something that doesn't make sense to me.
