Also another neat function you can add, perhaps a bit tounge in cheek.

Immortality algorithm:

  1. Reproduce, early childcare
  2. Higher education (informal or formal)
  3. Other goals (if cryopatients can be revived go to 7)
  4. Raise multiple pre-teen/early-teen kids
  5. Make descendants swear to follow this algorithm.
  6. Become cryo patient
  7. Wake up (other) cryo patients and help them adjust to immortality and awesome stuff now available.

I should point out implementations of variations of this algorithm have proven to be wildly successful at keeping themselves running on groups of Homo Sapiens. But the problem is all the previous implementations had crappy cryo so no one actually got to step 7. :(

But now I've fixed this! Awesome. :D
