The body of the reverend Martin Luther King Jr. was neither buried or cremated. His family arranged to have it preserved in a cryogenic freezer. The
folks at the cryo-bank are very concerned about maintaining the potential viability of all the bodies in their care, so it is standard procedure to
remove and inspect bodies once a year. On his birthday each year, the frozen body of M.L.K. is removed for routine evaluation and maintenance.
During this inspection last year, the technicians became momentarily distracted and allowed the body to roll onto the floor. It took a little while
for the embarrassed workers to recover their fumble, and of course the body was out of the freezer much longer than it should have been. To compensate
for the slight thawing of the body, the cryo-thermostat was cranked down a few notches.
This year when the body was brought out for inspection again, they discovered some signs of severe freezer burn. Once again we are able to learn an
important lesson from the death of Dr. King: "Don't over-cryo spilled M.L.K."
