Kennita Watson worries that life insurance companies may refuse to pay off  
on cryonics cases, because they might be revived.
 
Can't happen. They pay off on a death certificate, and our patients have  
death certificates. And the insurance companies feel no pain--the actuarial  
statistics are unchanged.
 
Moreover, the life insurance companies would benefit from more cryonicists.  
Typically, a cryonicist buys EXTRA insurance for himself, beyond what he has 
for  his family.
 
We have plenty of worries, but this is not one of them.
