Thanks for your rant. Not all cryonicists expect nanoresurrection into
fleshly form. I, for one, rather expect to be transformed into an upload
who then would gradually merge into whatever ongoing processes exist at
that time. The only way to presently store the information which
represents myself is via the dewar. When accurate disassembly is
available, I would expect my storage provider to convert my data into a
more reliable and less expensive storage format, especially with BACKUP
COPES!
BTW, would an investor in nanoresurrection be a member of an indrexed
fund??
