Cryonics

[ciphergoth]

I'm considering signing up with the Cryonics Institute. Are you signed up? I'd be interested to hear your reasons why or why not. It does of course sound crazy, but when you press past that initial reaction to find out why it's crazy, I haven't heard a really satisfactory argument yet, and I'm interested to hear what people think. There are many reasons it might not work, but are there reasons to think it's really unlikely to work? How likely does recovery need to be for it to be worth it?

I think you sum up a lot of the problems very nicely here, and I could make an even longer list, I think. But I dont think it is very accurate to describe this as an atheist mid life crisis. P has been talking about this for as long as I have known him.
