Alcor Foundation ( Cryonics ) Part.D ( Ted WILLIAMS )

Ted WILLIAMS was also a great champion and a winner. He was impassioned in his life.He was preserved like his son in the hope to return one day to the life. A big challenge, but it is better than to be buried or cremated.It was a pionner on his choices. Also,we believe that intelligence, memories & personality are determined primarily by the structure & chemistry of the human brain.Our aim is to preserve the brain so faithfully that its unique identity will also be preserved,so that future science may be able to revive the individual.We realize that this is highly speculative, but we feel that human life is sufficiently precious to justify our attempt,even thought the outcome is unknown.
Discover how leading-edge science at the Alcor Life Extension Foundation is getting closer to making the dream of a vastly extended lifespan come true and how our notion of "death" is shifting. This video included interviews with world-renowned scientists including Dr.Aubrey de Grey, Department of Genetics at the University of Cambridge, explaining how life can be cryopreserved on the verge of death and then revitalized, giving us a second chance at a long and productive life, and Dr. Ralph Merkle, Distinguished Professor of Computing at Georgia Tech, exploring how molecular-sized machines will be able to repair damage to your body from aging or the devastating effects of cancer and other illnesses, including frostbite.

Modern mummification. 200 years later these bodies will be discovered and put in a museum...

Yes there is postives! I'm 53 & have some great toys to play with. If you would have told me about the Internet 20 years & mini cellphones, it would have sounded pure Science fiction to me.

This is rubbish, these people make millions from uncertainties, take the 200k and enjoy the life you have.

@JohnQRandom And whole body I KNOW is 200K. I added an extra 30K on top of that because they suggest it, who knows what kind of after death lawsuits may arise that they have to fight on your behalf? Every little bit helps. I am paying for it how most people do. Life insurance policy, which starting young is not too bad. My $230,000 policy costs me $95 a month, and in exchange I get a chance at living again? Definitely worth it in my book.

@JohnQRandom I am signed up with Alcor. Depends on which route you prefer to take. You can go just neurocryopreservation, or whole body. Believe it or not there are actually a lot of very compelling reasons to go neuro, which you can find on their website, I chose whole body, however. Barring a few caveats, I personally think it increases the odds a bit of my actual resurrection, which realistically are already slim; or if not slim, then many, many hurdles away. Neuro is about 70 k I believe

Does anyone know how much it costs to be put in frozen hibernation? I've been fascinated with the idea since I saw the film Vanilla Sky.

All of these religious folks who gripe about this technology are going to be the first ones to use it..Tissue engineers are now growing organs in the lab, genetic engineering, stem cell therapy, bio-nanotechnology..All of this will within 30 to 40 will allow people to easily live past 100, maybe even past 1000.

And these Evangelical Christians, Orthodox Jews, fundamentalist Muslims, will be the first ones running to the nearest clinic to get their "bio-nanobots" and new organs.

@Ana1106

Further away from your religious, superstitious stupidity. It's natural to want to live..Remain healthy and strong. If there is a God, he gave us the impulse to live, and just as you would go to a doctor when you get sick, in order to extend your life, science maybe be able to extend human life, just as it's done in the past.

For all you know, those angels " elohim " in your TeNaK might just be technologically advanced beings, playing with your head.

@Ana1106 What makes you think that GOD would not approve? God has given us the brains and talents to triple our natural life spans in the industrialized world already. It was once 30 now it is closer to 90. I think God would approve of hospitals, doctors, and medicine why not other forms of life extension. If you think life is a gift then you should want to protect and extend it.

@daniellandgrens Check out the Cryonics institute they are 28 k and also check out local cryonics support groups in your area...if there is none then start one. Keep reading and asking questions. If you are really interested they is allot of information out there...on the internet or just send me a message.

[daniellandgrens]

What i read and understood from Alcors site it cost around 200k Not 24 k that someone mentioned.

Maybe someeone have more info about this.

And if u dont live in USA. What do then?

Sounds interesting.

[Ana1106]

what scares me is that they might actually succeed in this quest and that will lead people further away from G-d.
