am discussing right now with other writers, space artists, cosmologists, and
general lovers of the genre. If you are interested in this discussion either point of vide (i.e., sci-fi, cosmology, art, futurism, philosophy, spirituality, etc.), come join me, at http://www.flickr.com/groups/sci-fi-art/,

I know that many would rather talk about it unofficially, for it is still considered a scientific taboo, but “ostrich politics” won’t help here, because (generally speaking), people want to live forever and almost no one likes death. Anything is better than avoiding this issue, because–today or tomorrow, this way or another–the future generation are going to fight the aging gene with or without us.

BTW, I study the topic from all points of view, so this isn’t an anti-scientific subject matter to me.
