An open letter to scientific critics of cryonics

If this isn't to your tastes, don't worry, no doubt I'll be obsessing over something else soon enough :-)

A criticism of that document that met my "ideal points" would be far and away the best anti-cryonics article ever written, so I hope you're able to pursue it.

After seeing his ludicrous spin on the hippocampus study, I'm inclined to say "wtf" and dismiss him as a pseudoscientist.

Is that document particularly important to cryonics fans? Do they set sufficient store by it that it's actually worth the effort of demolishing?

Yes, I think so. Best is CEO of the Cryonics Institute, and as I keep saying, no-one has ever done anything like this before. Well, not as a standalone article anyway - there's lots of stuff hidden in blog comments but that's much less useful.
