I tend to agree with you, Bob. Plus the biggest fraud is "ideal storage conditions." Who can
guarantee temp- and humidity-controlled storage conditions for hundreds of years? Maybe a few
mountainsides around the world? But what about earthquakes? Man-made disasters? This whole topic, to
me, is a classic case of human hubris -- we great humans with our semi-scientific "aging" tests can
make a bold advertising claim that our device will outlive your feable body as you seek immorality!
Those archives of your of tweets and chats and other "important contributions" will live forever!
Oh, and we'll also freeze your head so our genius future-peers will "reanimate" you so you may tweet
again. Please!
