I'm not answering blindly; I've read the article and heard of this kind of thing before, but I don't think we'll ever understand such a concept completely. We can't even cure the flu, how the hell can we expect to live forever?

    buh.. that's ridiculous..
    even if they find some anti-aging medicine or something.. everybody dies at the end.. whether, after 20 years or 100.. by a disease or not.. when your time comes.. there's nothing you can do about it..

    just imagine what will happen to this world if no one dies and people keep giving births...

    And will that technique be availbale to EVERYBODY in the world, and not only the rich developed nations??

    And for me, researches on how to keep everybody well fed in this world is much more urgent than keeping everybody immortal.
