Vivisection is immoral and evil, be it done on a human or an animal.

It depends of if you consider a copy of your mind to be "you" in any real sense. If there was an exact copy of me right now, I would not consider that copy "me" - rather it would be a duplicate person, but not me. There could be 10,000 identical duplicates of my brain out there and not one of them would be me. That being said I doubt that freezing has any chance at all of actually being able to revive someone to their previous mental state...

Python by far...

My guess is the energy generated by the spinning hemisphere is less than the energy required to move his wrist when holding the magnet...

WingIDE for Python... Notepad++ for other tasks

Wing IDE Pro gives you an excellent debug environment (the best I have seen)...

You are right - for what it delivers $180 is more than reasonable. Unfortunately people tend to compare it to the free IDE's. Of course, Wing is free if you are working on an opensource project.

I live inside WingIDE Pro(/Windows/wxPython/Django/) - it is the only IDE I have used that will reliably debug multi threaded apps and wxPython. We have hundreds of Python components in our product (financial industry) and Wing makes it easy to manage (or at least as easy as possible). The company fixes problems quickly (I have reported a few and they fixed all of them within a reasonable time frame). For commercial Python development it is as close to perfect as I have found. Not cheap, but well worth it...
