RE: Old age

April 21, 2010 at 8:44 am

I'm not that bothered about 'old age' because I live under the delusion/hope/prediction/belief etc. that within the next few years *they will have cracked the ageing/degeneration problem and we'll all end up with the potential of not only living for several centuries but also in a body that is basically ageless.

I've heard it said many times that the first person to live over a thousand years has already been born.

* Whoever they are?
