What gets me is that the premise of cryogenics was to freeze THE WHOLE BODY so that if a cure is found for the disease that the person died from, they could possibly be revivied.
You cut off the hea, all you have is a frozen head. What the hell, do they think in our current society, that we'll be able to transplant heads before we cure diseases? They should have just buried the man, the WHOLE MAN, and let him rest in peace.

Keep in mind that cryogenics is really just a fad. There is no proof that the person could be able to be revived, and whoever paid for the storage is just wasting money, plain and simple.

Keep in mind that science has not, and probably won't be able, to "reset" the body's cellular clock. That means that if you were to clone yourself, your clone would be born at a cellular age the same as you. That would mean the clone would age and die faster than a normal person.

Remember the cloned sheep "Dolly"? She died after a few years of old age.

If you revive a person from cryo, all you've done is prolong their death. You haven't given them a "fresh start".
