Ted on ice:
The Ted Williams story is getting too strange not to be true. Originally it was just his head, (his brain, apparently) that was going to be frozen. But stop and think: we're talking Ted Williams here, not Richard Feynman.
Then it was his DNA that was going to be utilized for cloning. But you don’t need to preserve the body, or even the head, to extract DNA. As I understand it, a sample can be taken from the body and stored in a lab, and the body could then be buried or cremated normally. This would be much cheaper than freezing the body.
And now it seems that the real reason his son, John Henry, wants to put Ted on ice is to revive him later. News flash: Ted has been out of the Major League for a while. He was a once great athelete, with a now, 83 year old body. Even forgetting for a moment, the loonyness of the process itself, what exactly would be the point of cryogenicaly preserving him in that condition?
It seems to me that there's a whiff of Norman Bates and his mother in all this.
Also, Dan Shaughnessy weighs in on this debacle.
