​Thanks for the link Giulio that was interesting, especially Kenneth
Hayworth's comment that in his opinion preserving the brain connectome
would be good enough for uploading and infusing glutaraldehyde would help
in allowing you to evenly distribute cryoprotectant better; but his idea
ASC should not be offered until its been proven to work made no sense to me
and insisting it should go through the same amount of red tape that a new
cancer drug does before its approved made even less sense. The only way
we'll know for sure that any Cryonics procedure works is when we
successfully revive somebody, and if the technology was that good curing
any disease would be easy so nobody would ever need to be cryopreserved
again.
