Failed Predictions -
"Within a few more years, large numbers of terminally ill or hopelessly aged patients will be frozen prior to death and stored for reanimation in the future, when cures are developed for their illnesses or techniques of age reversal become available."
- Paul Segall, a graduate of the State University at Stony Brook doing postgraduate research at the University of California at Berkeley on the physiology of aging, 1980. He predicted that by 1992 "the first human will be successfully resuscitated after being frozen and thawed."
