From the Homepage:
Quote:
The concept of this business is as follows: Currently DNA researchers believe that they will, in the future, be able to regenerate a person from their DNA.

We believe this is very possible, if you look ahead 100 to 300 years into the future.

Some researchers think that there is also memory stored in the DNA of living things. We can see that the true time traveler of the future would be as follows: store the DNA of an individual, so that it will last for 100's or 1000's of years. Set up a growing Future Account, so that in 100 or 300 years the individual will have enough money for the regeneration process and a living allowance for the first 18 years of their life, plus a nest egg to start their new life. This may sound impossible or out of your price range, but if you set aside $10.00 in a Future Account, at the normal historical grow rate you would have over a Billion Dollars in 300 years. The great thing is, just like when you go to sleep, you awake in what seems like a second. So when you go into the great sleep, a 100 or 300 years will go by like a second. This is without a doubt the real time travel or time machine of the future.

So let's look at the program:

You become a member for $50, one time membership fee. We use $40.00 for normal operating expenses. We put the $10.00 in a Future Account for your future.

We collect 10% of the earned interest from your Future Account to provide ongoing operational funds for the safe keeping of your DNA.

You provide us with an envelope, sealed with a sample of your hair, some finger nail clipping and a cue tip swab of the inside of your mouth.

We vacuum seal this envelope in plastic and place in a fireproof safe. We place the safe in a freezer set at 10 degrees. The freezer has an alarm to safe guard its continued operation. If needed to transfer the DNA to other freezer, this set up will allow the temperature to hold for approximately 2 days.

We collect information and pictures from you that you want your future regenerated person to know about you. This information is only available to you in the future or anyone else you want to have this information.

We have complete instructions from you in the form of an agreement as to why, what, where, when and who needs to know your information.

When the time is right, i.e. , the amount in your Future Account is equal to (1) regeneration processing fee (2) Living expense for 18 years (3) nest egg to start your new life.

We set up the regeneration process, the living arrangements and the balance goes back into your Futurea Account until you reach 18 years old.

The pictures and information is given to your caregivers or held until your 18th birthday and given to you.

The company will monitor your upbringing and provide your caregivers with a monthly living allowance from your Future Account.

Here are some examples of your options: while alive you set up a membership for you, your wife and children and even your pet. In the agreement you specify that you want your wife and you to be regenerated at the same time in the future, and you want your children and pet to be regenerated when you are 20 years old. This way you can raise your own children.


Interesting concept.

So to summarize:

- Your body is a trillion-disk mirror set. The waste heat from this does not ignite you in any way.
- You, the amateur, provide your genetic material in a way that is in no way clinically controlled.
- You then pay them 50 bucks.
- You then die.

They pinky promise to resurrect you when the interest on a ten-dollar investment turns it into a billion dollars.

Is there a tech support line? I wanna send in a submission and then call 'em up as my attorney. "Hi, my client listed the potential future value of his investment with you as a billion dollars on some business plans. The FCC needs to inspect your investment structure before they approve the deal."

I found it interesting, because it reminded me of this:

Quote:
The Restaurant at the End of the Universe is one of the most extraordinary ventures in the entire history of catering.

It is built on the fragmented remains of an eventually ruined planet which is (wioll haven be) enclosed in a vast time bubble and projected forward in time to the precise moment of the End of the Universe.

This is, many would say, impossible.

In it, guests take (willan on-take) their places at table and eat (willan on-eat) sumptuous meals whilst watching (willing watchen) the whole of creation explode around them.

This is, many would say, equally impossible.

You can arrive (mayan arivan on-when) for any sitting you like without prior (late fore-when) reservation because you can book retrospectively, as it were when you return to your own time. (you can have on-book haventa forewhen presooning returningwenta retrohome.)

This is, many would now insist, absolutely impossible.

At the Restaurant you can meet and dine with (mayan meetan con with dinan on when) a fascinating cross-section of the entire population of space and time.

This, it can be explained patiently, is also impossible.

You can visit it as many times as you like (mayan on-visit re- onvisiting ... and so on - for further tense-corrections consult Dr Streetmentioner's book) and be sure of never meeting yourself, because of the embarrassment this usually causes.

This, even if the rest were true, which it isn't, is patently impossible, say the doubters.

All you have to do is deposit one penny in a savings account in your own era, and when you arrive at the End of Time the operation of compound interest means that the fabulous cost of your meal has been paid for. This, many claim, is not merely impossible but clearly insane, which is why the advertising executives of the star system of Bastablon came up with this slogan: "If you've done six impossible things this morning, why not round it off with breakfast at Milliways, the Restaurant at the End of the Universe?"
