Question:
What are your thoughts on cryogenic preservation and the idea of medically treating aging?
His response:
A marvelous way to just convince people to give you money. Offer to freeze them for later. I'd have more confidence if we had previously managed to pull this off with other mammals. Until then I see it as a waste of money. I'd rather enjoy the money, and then be buried, offering my body back to the flora and fauna of which I have dined my whole life.
It helps to keep in mind that the sequences are not polished works of brilliance, but things written as first drafts for a book as part of a two-year blog-a-day marathon and that will never be revised. So as long as that "sequences" link is up there, we're stuck with the unpolished bits.
Of course. That is why I wrote "now apparent"; it didn't occur to me very long ago, largely as a result of some research I did on habits a few months ago.
