I've been watching way too many sci-fi movies lately I guess but, I had a thought. Futuristically speaking we all have an opportunity to live longer if we take care of ourselves. No more of that 35 to 50 BS. But even that may not be enough for some. I know I am very curious about the future. I would like to live as long as I possibly can. So, if their was an opportunity to have our consciousness put into another, younger body would I do it? Yah, I think I would. If my health insurance covered it by then of course. LOL So what do you think? Would you do it?

No, I think I will take care of this body as well as I can. But, interesting idea. My uncle had Parkinsons, his body shut down at the end, while his mind was still clear.

Not in my life time. Even though I don't want to grow old quickly, it's happening and there's nothign i can do about it.

I am resolved to what will happen. I have always felt in my life that I will live a long one so it is all in God's hands.

As tempting as that sounds, no, I wouldn't.

I think that is the key word here -- tempting.

I would like to live more if having good health, happiness, and youth, otherwise I'd rather leave it as it is. :)
