I don't understand how we can speak about cryonics probabilities: If we think 
about the theoretical life again possibility base on known physical laws, the 
probability is 100%. Now, the actual probability rests on the work invested 
in doing it happen. So the probability is zero if we do noting ( nobody else 
will do it) and it is near 100% if we work on it.

So, the probability is defined by what we do or do not. If cryonics is a 

religion and we wait for some outside salvation, it will bring nowhere, if it is
seen as a technology,...
