My bolding of Brian's comments.

Brian, you are one of the strictest posters here regarding sticking to hard science. Where do you get off making an absolute statement regarding our longevity as a species with no justification whatsoever? Please tell us WHY you are so convinced we will not last that long as a species.

I happen to agree with you but probably for a different reason. I believe we will have so re-engineered ourselves by that point, we will not be the same species we are now. You make it sound like you are certain we will not survive in any form. Isn't that a bit presumptuous? Please correct me if I misinterpreted you.

My bolding I don't understand your objection.

It's amazing 'science' always seems to 'find' whatever it is funded for, and never the oppsite. Drich.
