Ted Williams' head was mistreated

It is reported that Red Sox Hall of Famer Ted Williams' head was mistreated at an Arizona cryonics facility. Larry Johnson, a former executive at the Alcor Life Extension Foundation in Scottsdale, writes that Williams' head, which had been severed and frozen for storage, was abused at the facility. Johnson claims a technician took baseball-like swings at Williams' frozen head with a monkey wrench.

Williams died in 2002 at age 83 and had his remains sent to Alcor for cryogenic storage in the hope that future generations would develop the technology to revive him.
