Steven Johnson, author of Where Good Ideas Come From, provides support for the idea of seeking relationships with people from backgrounds dissimilar to yours to help in your own problem solving. I propose that cryonicists start to talk with technical problem solvers, otherwise known as inventors, outside of our usual social networks and comfort zones to see if they can give us some insight into tackling cryonics' many challenges. I cannot rationally defend the idea that we'll find some of the missing pieces this way; but what cryonicists have done so far seems to have resulted in stagnation, so it makes sense to look.
