Long term, put them in the freezer, as it simulates a winter freeze and does no harm.

I agree. I sure wish it would work with bulbs; and I wonder if it would work with potatoes and onions?

I do put bulbs into the veg crisper, but not the freezer, as the ice crystals destroy cell membranes. Nope, it won't work with pots and onions, either: living cells invaded by ice causes fatal damage. That's why we don't yet have the technology to un-freeze frozen (cryogenics) patients, but it will come in the near future.
