Subject: disinterment question

Trygve Bauge aks, if a cryonics organization will accept members' remains in 
very bad condition, as occasionally happens through unforeseeable and 
unavoidable circumstances, why not accept disinterred remains from new people?

The answer is simple--the public relations and legal risks in the latter case 
are much worse. We have to live in the real world and strike balances.
