  It seems that this particular problem is well within reach of an 
affordable technical solution. That would be a wearable device, 
perhaps merely a kind of bracelet which could monitor pulse or maybe 
just motion inobtrusively, send an alarm sound/signal to the wearer, 
then, if no response to the cryonics provider or an intermediary 
emergency service provider or 911, all using currently available and 
relatively cheap cell phone technology. Such a device would have very 
wide utility, especially for anyone with a questionable health history 
or life-threatening condition. I assume that our society is gradually 
moving in this direction, anyway, but cryonicists have a special 
motivation to be early adopters of such devices. Please, someone, tell 
me that such services already exist, how they work, and what they cost. 
All those on this list should be kept current on the state-of-the-art 
in this area. I know I am not.
