Some very interesting history on the group is in the This American Life episode "mistakes were made." http://www.thisamericanlife.org/radio-archives/episode/354/mistakes-were-made/  Trevor Sinclair (talk) 17:58, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

Self-praise
In the last paragraph of the "Perspective" section, it is stated: "As managers of the longest-lived cryonics program, the American Cryonics Society can take justifiable pride in its history." This is self-praise and should be deleted. H3iu.87xW.k44r.0H3d (talk) 12:26, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

NPOV
This reads like an ad, to the point even of referring to bodies in storage as "patients." I'm pretty sure virtually nobody outside of the cryonics sphere thinks of them that way. The persons in question meet all the criteria for being referred to as "dead", "deceased", "departed", etc., etc. The idea that they are "patients", which carries with it the implication that it's may actually be possible to "treat" (i.e. reanimate) them at some point is, to say the least, highly questionable. While this company may have the right to use such language in their advertisements I think a format like Wikipedia should use the sort of language that would be supported by the vast majority of the medical community. They're dead! Beetfarm Louie (talk) 15:36, 22 December 2018 (UTC)
