To cryonisists everywhere,
my experience is that authorities are not that concerned with whether or not cryonics is viable or not (as a means of bringing anyone back). They are just concerned with that the next of kin agree upon moving the body, that it is moved to a place where it will be legally accepted, and that the transfer is paid for and is done in a proper fashion.
That is my experience from all the cryonics cases I have been involved in.
I have hardly met any opposition in this case from any non cryonisist! Cryonisists too should rethink their opposition in light of the fact that the body was embalmed before it was burried.
From a media point of view, those cryonisists who refused and refuse to help the many post mortem requests, stand to get the most critic.
Rather than attacking a case one doesn't know the facts about, one could be a little more assisting
to the many people that do make requests post mortem.
Needless to say there will continue to be many such requests for the foreseeable future.And if cryonics are to succeed we need to improve how we handle such cases.
Sincerely,
Trygve
