Yes, it is a promising project, but is only a research program at present,
with no specific plans for actual storage. As one of the original PP pledegers,
($5000/yr, $2000 for pilot project) my motivation here is to help explore
alternatives to liquid nitrogen temperature storage and the associated
freezing damage. _If_ the research pans out I as well as others would switch
to that type of storage, assuming I'm not already suspended in LN2.
In the meantime, Alcor and the like are the only game in town.
