  Based on what? It seems like a mostly sound idea - preserve a body such that it can be recovered later.

    It's pretty gross, but the brains of people in persistent vegetative state break down after many years. The same thing will happen here, albeit more slowly because of the refrigeration, but we're talking hundreds of years. There's not going to be anything left to revive.

      > albeit more slowly Yes, that is the entire point. > we're talking hundreds of years. So the idea here is that in hundreds of years we will still have developed no way of taking a frozen person and unfreezing them? And then curing whatever ailment killed them? I don't see that as a sure thing at all, one way or the other.
