I see no connection between this and String theory.
And speking of said theory, could someone enlighten me as to what use it has had so far? I have an layman's/engineer's interest in theoretical physics, and I have yet to see a clear summary of how the theory agrees/disagrees with QM and relativity, and whether it is at least capable of duplicating current results.
P.S. Please, something beyond the "strings vibrate in N dimensions".
Metaphysical issues aside, they still need to investigate the effects of the procedure on memory and cognitive capacity (could try mice and their maze solving before and after hypothermia). Then there are possible long-term effects.

Clearly, you have never been in a North American department store.
