I got this from Mike Darwin. Obviously some cps do it, but it seems to
be a temperature phenomenon too.

The problem is the combinatoric explosion of the search space.

Sounds like a good idea.

Irrelevant, since its only purpose is to limit tissue damage doing
suspension. Of course, if it caused continuing damage at -170, then it
would be a concern, but that is rather unlikely.

A fun idea. I can see before me "The Little Cryonicist" for kids:
suspend your pet (liquid nitrogen not included). Not very likely to
work, though, since it likely requires medical expertise.
