2032, I guess I don't have to save any money for retirement.

The answers I got were consistant each time I put in the same info. On top of that, I wasn't very happy with the answer I got.

My wife on the other hand, is suppose to live to the ripe old age of 91.


I don't know how much confidence you can put into it anyway.

Chances seem likely that I'll die when I choose to. Ref. Kurzweil & Grossman's Fantastic Voyage: Living Long Enough to Live Forever, Broderick's The Last Mortal Generation, and the Immortality Institute's The Scientific Conquest of Death.

Namaste.

wow.... so why am I going to be alive so long?
I mean, I'm all for the long life, so long as it doesn't mean I'll be senile and unable to care for myself. But living to 105... chances aren't that good.

I wonder what people think about when they are 105?

You are an absolute nutter. Send me a pre-vite to your funeral and I promise to chisel this post into your tombstone.

(Or the memorial above where your ashes were dispersed. Namaste.)

There is something SERIOUSLY wrong with that thing. It says I'm good to go till Monday, June 16, 2036. I can't believe I've got 30 more years on me.

I'm February, 2036, so you've got a few months on me. Man, this is sweet!! There's no way I thought that I would last another 30 years. I gave myself 20, tops.

Do your condemnations come through complete ignorance of the advances in senescence/longevity research or through some arcane-yet-wholely-debunked criticism to senescence/longevity research?

I suppose you have some fantastic rebuttal to the Immortality Institute (and what an all star cast of signatories!), as well as their video, Exploring Life Extension.

Oh how predictable comes the banter of the uninformed.

Namaste.
