Future Life Expectancy: 1000+ years

[Ara]

you didn't read the article, did you? anyways, it probably will never be avalaible(sp?) to public because humans are selfish. I don't think i would appreciate to spread the market and get less omney with someone else. This would be a SOLD medecine, and therefore, with every other product, the right to sell it would be a big fight. Before it is even created and then distributed to public will take a big fucking shit load of time. i don't think i'll actually see the medecine in my whole life.

The article doesn't say much about mental healt, it only explains vaguely
and like to a child some simplified method of curing "seven major types of
molecular and cellular damage that eventually become bad for us".

It does say "you would be youthful, both physically and mentally". Now how
does the guy know how even a few hundred years affects us mentally? He
doesn't prove it in any way. We might become just as senile at the age of 100
as any other grandpa but with a killer body. Not to mention how much the
odds of becaming a skitzo increase as centuries pass by.

Anyway, this kind of opportunity would change the society we live in entirely,
we would actually start caring about our healt and body and mental healt.
We would become paranoid, life would loose a bit of it's glory and significance.
Reproduction would have to be more controlled among 100 other things so we
would need stronger governments, more like a fascist global ruling. It wouldn't
matter anymore where you were born. Being accidentally born in Holland or
Africa wouldn't mean much to anyone.

Drugs would have the highest market value and money would come second,
if a drug that powerful would be created the drug companies would become
property of the government, and then eventually property of a global system,
controlling it's population.

Can you imagine how it would affect people to live, work, study, eat, jog, love,
learn, move around the world, wash teeth, maybe be allowed to have one baby,
then again work and work, travel, feel pain, feel joy, become numb, become
cynical, for five hundred years or thousand?

Too lazy to write anything more, wasting more than 5 minutes on these
forums is a waste of time.

a couple of things to think about:

1. how much will this cost? What are the implications if only rich people can afford this?
2. what if telcat affords this, and circulates her nekkid pics on the internet to your children's chidren's children's children' children.. etc etc etc asld;kjf

Seriously though, who would want to be a 1000 years old..

Let's talk more about halfass junk science that has no connection whatsoever with reality

Richard Pryor is telling you to shut the fuck up, Vyk.
