I want to support Thomas on this one. Quite a bit of
research is going on with the aim to freeze kidneys. I
persoanlly agree that will work long before
nanotechnology is a major factor--and once something
like that works, the case for eventual revival of
frozen brains will be _much_ more compelling.

> [Thomas Donaldson]Apparently what I am about to say
isn't heard very well by most 
cryonicists, but I will say it anyway. First, cryonic
suspension 
methods have not undergone (past tense) a quantum leap
with
nanotechnology. No one has invented any
nanotechnological method
as yet capable of dealing with the damage of
suspension.

The real quantum leap in suspension methods comes not
from 
nanotechnology but from the work on vitrification,
which exists  
already and continues to progress.
