Cryonics Institute

If you are into american sitcoms, you are familiar with Phillip J. Fry and his "Frozen" situation. Maybe a picture will refresh your memory.

Fry's bad luck took him to a future way different from his world.
Is this even possible? What do you know about W. Disney? Yes, he created M. Mouse and company. But rumor has it that Mr Disney is frozen somewhere in France. The urban myth says that he had a very rare desease that had no cure in those days, so he got himself into a giant "freezer" and waited there for the day that science will find the cure. The truth is that he is stone dead and is not in a cooler.

This idea had an echo and some people have developed it, and one you are dead, you can preserve yourself. "The Cryonics Institude offers cryopreservation services and information. As soon as possible after the legal death, a member patient is INFUSED with a substance to prevent ice formation, cooled to a temperature where physical decay essentially stops, and is then maintained indefinitely in cryostasis (that is, stored in liquid nitrogen)" (Taken from the Institude's webpage)

This is not only for humans. You can use it to preserv your beloved pet. So one day you can bring it back to life. The service provided for the C.I. costs 10 euros per week. (cheapper than a pizza) if you can afford it. Will you keep a corpse until science is advanced enough to re-animate it? If something in the reanimation goes wrong, will the froozen one come back as a zombie? Do you member that book by Stephen King, Pet cementery? The idea sounds similar.
