Who wants to live forever? (1 Viewer)

Who waits forever, anyway?

Sounds pretty amazing, though of course there's every chance the benefits won't be quite so dramatic. Still, it's an exciting idea, innit?

Of course, this could mean the retirement age would have to be raised to 110 Eek!

Well, that isn't quite forever. If you haven't seen it, you must see Tuck Everlasting, but you'll get no spoilers from me, he, he.

I want to live forever! But, another 45 years would do it for me if I can't live forever!

Oh, sue me. So I threw in a couple Queen references :p)

I want to live forever,
I want to learn how to fly (HIGH!)
I feel it coming together,
People will see me and cry
FAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If I had the chance to live forever I would take it IF AND ONLY IF the people I cared about took the chance, too, and the things I cared about would still be around.

"Instead of pumping the patient full of chemicals, we will be giving them a more natural drug."

WTF? You mean natural drugs don't have chemicals? What the hell is this guy smoking?

Taking this pill is equivalent to eating 30 pounds of fruit and vegetables a day? That doesn't sound very healthy to me!

How can one chemical (oh wait, it's not a chemical because it is "natural" ) extend life? Sounds too good to be true...

*cough*bullshit*cough*

And how does this "natural" drug deal with the shortening of teloramese strands in the cell DNA, another MAJOR component in aging?
