Have any efforts been made to sythesize industrial quantities of amber resin? 
I feel that immersing would-be cryonics patients in amber would prove more
ultimately successful than conventional liquid nitrogen storage.  Perhaps the
amber needed to preserve a human body could be derived from
genetically-modified trees.

There was some brief excitement last summer re. amber, I think, after
"Scientific American" ran an article about trapped insects.
