X-Message-Number: 879 Date: 06 Jun 92 02:34:16 EDT From: Thomas Donaldson <> Subject: Re: cryonics: #878 Hi! I personally think that what we will find is that there is a great variety of possible kinds of damage, some of which give an obvious road to repair and others that LOOK almost impossible. Medicine has usually gone that way: once you look at something, it becomees more and more complex. For myself, I have decided to have any remains at all suspended. My problem is that it just will not be obvious to us now what is easy and hard to repair. Distinctions between micro and macro damage, for instance, may form a rough guide but when scrutinized breaks down. I would with regret accept that SOME kinds of damage will make us unrecoverable ... but in any real case it would be foolish for us now to try to work out the distinction.
