GOOD FOR A THOUSAND!
Well, I just had my annual
physical and the doctor said that at this rate I’m good to last at least to
100. I think that may prove to be a
bit longer.
Think about it. Organ cloning is about 5 years away. And when nano technology gets going there
will be little machines running around in our blood finding malfunctions and
fixing them even before they get noticed.
Our body parts won’t wear out as fast and when they do, they can be
regrown and replaced! And since the
clones will be of our own cells, no chance of rejection!
Last year I found myself facing
the remote possibility of near mortality.
This year I’m looking at the very real possibility of near
immortality. The possibility is
mind-boggling. All the time in the
world to accomplish things, to never have to worry about growing really old and
being able to see the future as it unfolds, maybe even have a hand in directing
it.
Things are going to be fun!
