If it comes to doing lots of music, I think it'd be hard to outdo Merzbow, he's done hundreds of albums, and one of them was 50 CDs long. Arguably it isn't music anyway, but still...

Actually it sounds appealing now but how about 40 years from now? I may grow weary of this life and be ready for that great leap into the black unknown.

I wish I had not read this thread

All that's happened is I know now (although I've never not known) that it is possible to live beyond a normal lifespan of 120 years (maximum according to the bible), but the research won't be over untill I've died (probably even later ). So what good does this knowledge do.

It will be possible, but not for me

Actually, the average lifespan has begun to show signs of decreasing recently, breaking the general trend of the last milennium.

I personally consider time to be a lot like money...you tend to assume more is better, but it's what you do with it that counts.

I know that living for fifty more years while completely dependent on medication and technology to keep me alive would be a kind of hell. I've done hospice work; though rewarding, I couldn't imagine half the earth's population like that.

Would you sacrifice your sight (or hearing, in keeping with the music that brought us here) for an extra 100 years of life? I'd have serious problems living out my normal span if something so essential to my enjoyment of life were gone.
