Subject: The cost of cryonics

    Mac Tonnies

    In a way, it's regrettable that cryonic suspension is expensive, but at the
same time, I'm glad it is.  If some organization offered me a suspension for,
say, $2,000, I'd have to turn them down.
    I think cost is the secondary barrier the public must surmount (the first
being simple ignorance).  It is paramount that the public understand that
the price suspension includes an ongoing process, not just the physical act
of being frozen.
    This is all academic, but it's unfailingly what I observe whenever the
subject comes up in conversation.
