Here's an interesting and informative newspaper clipping used as a bookmark that I'd found in the mid-1990s while browsing for second-hand (used) books in a bookshop somewhere downtown at Coleman Street. The bookseller had just brought in a few crates of used books from London.
This clipping, running a full length of 60 centimeters, was in fact nicely torn out from a page of The Sunday Times of London, 22 January 1967. It's an article about cryogenics, the medical science of immediately freezing the body upon death and hoping to revive it to life later when miracle science discovers the way to do just that.
Indeed, it's frightening to think about it, but then the closing statement in this clipping exhorts "And why not, indeed? Who wouldn't risk a gamble on Life Eternal now."
