I echo Randy's why, but remember two things. 1) Not everyone on this
list is an Objectivist. Nor is every Extropian or transhumanist an Objectivist.

2) Being an Objectivist does NOT imply one isn't generous, considerate,
or helpful to others. I don't want to be immodest, but I usually experience
great pleasure from helping others.

I'm sorry that this is probably going to mushroom into a huge debate on
generosity and the like.:/

On the original issue, How can one go about procuring cryopreservation
in situations like Randy's uncle's? Has this happened before? What are
the legal problems to be overcome?

Cheers!
