Perhaps one of our legal eagles can help us here:

What exactly *are* our rights, if we get some disease that will turn our
brains to shit before we breathe our last? Two good examples would
be emphysema and Alzheimers. Is there a state that will let us go into
cryo-suspension before too much damage is done? Can we pull that
cryonics-as-religion gag in order to get some anti-hate-crime special
rights? I dont see why at least *one* of the 50 state legistatures would
not grok what we are trying to do. spike
