I found this scary and interesting all that the sametime. This is what gets me the most about the whole thing: "Plans to test the technique on humans should be realised within a year, according to the Safar Centre." Now this comes to my question. Should this new technique be tested and developed further? Discuss!

Kitkat makes great signatures!
wow.....thats pretty awesome......
technically its not like any sort of "zombification" process though.......because the subject never actually dies.....
its more along the lines of cryogenesis without the cryo

Scary indeed. There's no limit to weird things like these within science.
All scientists should get together and prepare how we are going to survive an eventual meteor hit instead [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
i think something along the lines of no more fossil fuels or another ice age are more pressing matters than human reanimation or an oncoming meteor (according to that 10 ways to destory the planet site someone posted earlier, we would know of any planet-threatening meteor at least 15 years before it shows up, so we can worry about that when that happens).Originally posted by: Terracosmo

or even better....find a way to terraform mars

if we can create vulcano creating devices, we would be able to
and while we have the energy and time to figure all that out, how about solving some more immediate needs like world hunger or poverty (note sarcasm) =P sometimes i think humanity's focus in general is a tad skewed.
screw hunger and poverty......its all about fossil fuels and an ice age, damnit!

Heh anyone who's been clinically dead but then came back, is considered a zombie then.
Wow that's freaky, just watched Land of the Dead too.

thats because half the time your neighbors are total idiots and would most likely be worthy of winning a darwin award. i kno somepeople around me are =P
Pretty amazing piece of news, but I shudder at the thought of anything going wrong during the trials on humans. Perfect setting for another B grade horror film eh.

Indeed Psyke. That was exactly what I thought as well.
It's only a matter of time before the dogs starts eating brains I suppose. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
you know....im pretty sure the image of the dog was either not part of the experiment, or was the most exaggerated case of how he looked after the test
you can tell that the writer had a pessimistic interpretation of the story

TELL me do you really think that this "Experiment" has a good USE with out breaking the morality of "DEATH".......
Because death is DEATH there is no more!!!!!!!!!!! if is your time for die you can't complain!1 BUT in the other side I don't care the morality so.........
i just hope this won't end like RESIDENT EVIL
Okay, If you die of old age, maybe you can be brought back to life by those means. But for how long will it last. You can't face the fact that your still old and your body can't function forever.

I don't see anything wrong with something like this if it helps people that got hurt in a car crash for example. Everything that can help people from dying early is good in my book. It is a little freaky tho and that dog picture didn't make it less freaky.

But Perhaps you forgot that WE ARE HUMANS an humans DON'T help people Humans are selfish and y can bet you that this will end
Like a MILITARY Research only........ and What happend with your need to help..... it simply didn't EXIST!!!
Eh? You lost me with that one....
I disagree with that humans are selfish. There wouldn't be doctors, firemen, policemen for example if humans were selfish. Of course everyone is a little bit selfish from time to time but that is good you should think about yourself to.
