I found it in the Spring 2009 issue of H+ Magazine:
This sends a wrong message from the perspective of cryonicists who want to integrate cryonics into medicine. Mainstream medicine doesn't offer you the opportunity to "relive your life differently."

I like this ad. The small print explains what it's about. This kind of stuff appeals to the masses = good thing.

Yeah, but is there really a need to "appeal to the masses" in H+ magazine?
I'd much prefer an ad that reads, "Cryonic - it's worth a shot."

Reliving your life is the PERFECT angle for a certain market that makes up a large percentage of cryonicists, and I think that "advancedatheist" should be someone who really understands on a personal level why that angle should work.

"relive your life", sounds as if cryonics is time travel.
Some people are emphasizing too much on revival rather then what cryonics really is ... preservation.
IMO, cryonics should be viewed as (the best and ultimate) alternative to cremation and burial, not as a means of achieving immortality or "reliving your life differently" by future revival (even though that's what most people want, me included).

but truthfully, advancedAth, don't you wish you could get another shot at life, and this time, do it right, with all the advantages? I do.
