I have to admit, I'm still at the stage in my development as a rationalist that coming up with an actual, honest-to-goodness original idea - especially one that's actually true and useful - makes my day. (Or month.) /If/ this idea is true, and /if/ it actually helps point the direction to help improve cryo providers... who just might manage to attract at least one additional member, and/or acquire enough extra funding to lead to something approaching immortality... then that just might make my millennium. (Hello there, anyone reading this more than a century from now!)

Of course, that's a pretty big 'if'. And if it's not true, I still want to know that, so I can avoid wasting too much of my all-too-finite time on an unproductive path.
