[ WP ] It 's 3016 , cryogenic people are being revived for the first time .

There were a lot of them back then. Hopeless fools who decided the best path they could take in their life was to step into a goddammed freezer and shut the world out. The motives vary from person to person. Some did it because they had some incurable illness, some did it for sience, and some did it just for the hell of it. Eventually they all end up in here. 
 
 I remember when I started working at the lab. Back then the defrosting process was new and exciting. Scientists from all over the union came to witness the first human beeing woken up from his thousand year slumber. And I have to confess, *it was pretty amazing. * In this line of work you mostly forget their names and faces to keep yourself from going insane, but him I will always remember. **Henry A. Roberts**, U.S. Senator, had stage three cancer, let himself be frozen to save his life. His family was one of those who managed to make a profit out of all seven worldwars, so *of course* he was a priority. I'm not quite sure of what happened to him afterwards. I know he had a few talkshow appearances on the Network, and that he went to New Hawaii. Maybe he's still there, maybe he's dead. Would n't make a difference. 
 
 Back when this thing was treated as a scientific breakthrough they had so-called `` care programmes''. They would give you credits, a home, and catching-up-courses to integrate you into society. Now I was *born* here and need half a fucking pharmacy every morning to get through the day without clawing my eyes out. Why they would ever think that people from another *millennia* could cope with this world is beyond me. So when the suicide rate of those poor bastards increased, our funding did the opposite. And at some point, the world stopped caring at all. 
 
 Nowadays most of them end up homeless, addicted, insane, or if they're lucky - dead. In my opinion the best course of action would be to unplug all remaining cryo-chambers to show at least a bit of mercy. But contracts were signed, and I need the credits. 
 
 And about what you said earlier, I'm gon na tell you a little secret. I've done this kind of interview a million times. You want to know how often these publications changed anythin in here? Not once. And you know why? Because of the single truth I learned in twelve years of working here. **PEOPLE. DO N'T. CARE. **
