If we go by Kurzweil, and I am open to his views, that day will be 7 years away in 2030. His view? Medical nanotechnology that will make K. Eric Drexler, a happy primate. Perhaps yourself, as well? On the other hand, laws and economics will then have to be changed, and you may be forced by eddict to pursue income, perhaps off-planet, so as to allow the young folks to have gainful employment, IF AI permits this?

It's favorable evidence but it doesn't prove that human Cryonics will work, however it certainly proves that the old cliché that claims freezing and then thawing a cell always turns it into undifferentiated mush is not true. Human Cryonics will be proven to work on the very day it becomes obsolete and is no longer needed, the day that Drexler style Nanotechnology becomes available . John K Clark See what's on my new list at Extropolis )^& Scientists have brought back to life Nematode worms that have been buried 130 feet under the Siberian permafrost for between 45,839 and 47,769 years according to Carbon-14 tests. Researchers at the Max Planck Institute in Germany have now bred these worms for over 100 generations (worm generations are about 10 days long) and they say it is a species of Nematode that has never been seen before. They call it "Panagrolaimus kolymaensis". The lead researcher says: "Basically, you only have to bring the worms into amenable conditions, on a culture (agar) plate with some bacteria, some humidity and room temperature, they just start crawling around then. They also just start reproducing. In this case this is even easier, as it is an all-female (asexual) species. They don‘t need to find males and have sex, they just start making eggs, which develop."
