Cryonics could save your life
I'm not trying to convince you.... You can convince yourself:
Ok, I'll try to convince you. Until we actually do it, we can't know if it will work, but if I freeze my head (or more precisely, if I have my head frozen) and it manages to survive intact for a few hundred years or a few thousand, then simply turn the clock dial forward in your imagination as many centuries as you need to imagine that the technology to rescue a frozen brain finally is achieved (remembering what the last century has brought us in terms of technological advances).
Why do I want to do such a strange thing? Because I want more. I want more life. I want to see the future. And because, from the youngest age, I have acquired the pesky habit of trying to survive.
On June 29, 1976, at the age of 19, I decided to research biological aging, and if possible, cure it. I did years of independent library research on aging, which eventually resulted in these two publications:
Alas, the paper on aging explains why it will be very difficult to cure aging (difficult, but not impossible). I think it will take centuries. The good news, however, is that if we are frozen, then the time will pass by quickly. And when and if we are resuscitated, we will wake up inside of brand new state-of-the-art bodies, with options like you wouldn't believe.
Is cryonics a portal to "forever" or merely a vast future (e.g. a few billion years)? This is a question that you & I might ponder while enjoying a majestic sunset, while sipping the latest fad in beverages in the year 3450. Meet me under the rainbow.
