I'm pleased that clinical immortality seems to be a meme on the rise, largely thanks to Aubrey de Grey. I have recently seen his hirsute smile from the cover of several print magazines, and even on Free Republic during one of my self-abusive peeks onto that site (though granted most of the comments were of the "Huh huh his hair is funny; that article shore has a lot of words" variety).

He is an interesting speaker -- i saw him at pop!tech a few years ago. He is convinced this is a problem that can be solved. And he is looking for relatively modest amounts of money to do the research he says is needed to solve the 8 or so areas of aging to be addressed.

we'll see, i guess.
