When water freezes it expands, right? We are 80% water. When our cells freeze its amazing bi-lipid membrane ruptures and no amount of electricity or magic or voodoo will repair it. Cryogenic believers say that this issue will "be solved in the future", but you cannot put toothpaste back into the tube, so to speak.

Not that I believe cryopreservation will work, but are you sure you have your information correct here? Alcor (which I presume is the only cryopreservation company in existence) says they use a technique called vitrification.
