[DeTomaso] NPC: Wining about getting old

Thu Jan 15 14:12:17 EST 2015

Hi Sean,

For some reason I read a lot about the research and tech side of health
care. I too believe that if you can live another 30 years or so most of the
health problem we know of today will be solved. This is not to say that new
things will not come a long to kill us.

Even our aging is no more then the coping (reproducing) of a cell
100000000000000000000000000 times starts to look bad, just like if you
coping a photo on a copier. Each copy is not as good as the last. DNA
research is showing promise in stopping and even reversing this....stay
tuned.

I was thinking about that last night.  I need to step up the exercise and
step down the food part of healthy food.  Chances are pretty good that I
will survive given the technology at hand.  What that life will look like
is another matter entirely.
