Something to Think About

    Most sermons sound to me like commercials - but I can't make out whether God is the Sponsor or the Product.
    Mignon McLaughlin


    By the word simplicity, is not always meant folly or ignorance; but often, pure and upright Nature, free from artifice, craft or deceitful ornament.
    Ben Franklin


    In fact, at this point in history, the most radical, pervasive, and earth-shaking transformation would occur simply if everybody truly evolved to a mature, rational, and responsible ego, capable of freely participating in the open exchange of mutual self-esteem. There is the 'edge of history.' There would be a real New Age.
    Ken Wilber

Ending Aging by Aubrey de Grey

I’m 3/4 through Aubrey de Grey’s new book, Ending Aging. I’ll be posting a more thorough review in an upcoming post, but suffice it to see that I am finding the book very inspiring. I’ve been reading from Aubrey and others that the timing of the availability of the therapies to help all of us live much longer, healthier lives is limited only by our funding and desire. Although I hoped that this was the case, I was never truly convinced until I read the details of the SENS strategies and the immediate pathway ahead.

If you are at all interested in healthy life extension I highly recommend this book. It belongs on your shelf next to the works by Kurzweil and others.

Right now the Methuselah Foundation is offering a promotion to get an autographed copy of Aubrey’s book for a $100 donation.

If you are a US resident, the donations are both tax-deductible and matched by Peter Thiel, founder of Facebook and PayPal.
