'allo

I've been lurking on-and-off for a while. I've just never posted, that I can recall...

I'm on holiday in Canada this month (hence the January comment) but you'll probably see more of me. ;)

I just got the January 2005 issue of Pop Sci, and there it is in print! It's mentioned on the cover, but it's not the cover story. I had a friend tell me I should read this month's popular science, because there was an article in it that I might like, so that means it must be working. (The friend in question knows that I'm "into anti-aging stuff", but he isn't himself...)

Hehe, that's funny in some mad way. Who is not into living longer? It seems only to be the those with suicidal tendencies. ;)

It reminds me of a quote on one of the MMP flyers.

Aging really is barbaric. It shouldn't be allowed.
I don't need an ethical argument. I don't need any argument.
It's visceral. To let people die is bad.

The old link is out of date. The entire article ("The Prophet of Immortality") from the Jan 2005 issue of Popular Science, which features Aubrey de Grey and mentions the Immortality Institute can be found here:

Oy, this might sound stupid, but now that ImmInst is gaining more popularity I'm thinking of just buying a lifetime membership right now. Who knows if it might go up :)

Plus, when the place is full of people, I can say "I've been a lifetime member since 2006...". Shoot, I should have done it before the new year...
