I don't think Mike was talking about "bringing back" just people (and
animals) that are frozen.

He said he was agreeing with me.  

I was stating that if we have the technology (some day far in the future) to
bring back every person who ever existed (and every thinking animal that
ever existed), not just those who were suspended, that we *should* do this.

I was replying to a posting by Charles Platt about ethics.

I think this is what Mike was agreeing to  ---- ????
