I have one problem with this statement. AFTER being born human, by a series of completely chance events going back several billion years what is the point in extending LIFE from say 75 to 150 years? Why is life not a disease? Silly, pointless quest IMO. But as Udhay always says - follow the money. These people are trying to squeeze some money out of this - promising eternal life and some unspecified time in the future. After all - anyone who is 50 years today and wants to try out something new to live till 150 will have to wait 100 years to see if its a success of failure and if he dies early he can't sue. I tell ya..some people.. shiv
