Average lifespan for males in the US is 76 an rising. At the current rate, I would expect that by 2050, average lifespan for males would be at least 85. Thus, Even if Gepap were 40 now, he would have at least a 50% chance of seeing 2050.

Entirely new mechanisms of lifespan increases will be required to attain further increases so the current rate should not be projected to the future at all. Additional changes to current lifespan will have nothing to do with the current rate.

I don't want a quick end. I've a good forty years to go before I join the likes of Ming in wearing adult diapers and being unable to chew Cheerios What kind of life can you have at 70? 80? 90? Not for me, just not for me.

My father was regularly breaking 80 on the golf course when he was in his early 70's. Doesn't sound bad too me. And it beats the alternative.

I'd rather take death if all I have to look forward to is golfing

Sure, why not? It's a gas. I'll be shutting this place down.

Besides, I need to get my money's worth for my lifetime Poly Plus membership.

The whole point of this kind of research is stop wasting time extending the time we spend wrinkly, weak and infirm and extend the period in which we look and feel young. Are you still opposed to such research given such a goal?

Yes, because it means Ming's reign of terror will end that much later
