I don't find it amusing. I find it admirable. Aging is the number one cause of suffering and death in old age. This research has the ability to help alleviate the most important issue of our lives (literally). Vitriol is unwarranted.
- Blahah 12y ago> Aging is the number one cause of suffering and death in old age Correction: aging is the only cause of old age.
- bcheung 12y agoThere's a minority of deaths from car crashes and accidents. By yeah, effectively, it's aging that we should be concerned about.
- puranjay 12y agoThe end of aging is easily one of, if not THE most, profoundly philosophical issues for mankind. Not dying will fundamentally change human society. Our entire social setup depends on the guarantee that people will eventually die. This is why you go to college in your 20s, have kids in your 30s and retire in your 60s. Simply put, if we change human mortality, we will change human perception of time. That will bring along changes I can't even fathom.
