There ain't nothin wrong with using the rich as guinea pigs for the rest of us on tech stuff where the injustice won't last.  That worked in the late 70s for VCRs and microwaves, and it could work now.  LET Justin Timberlake pay out the butt and take the risks - maybe that'll get the cost and safety to something reasonable before I'm too old to go.

...and no.. this is not Star Trek.... this is real life.

Age.... may just be like Michu Kaku said be a number.

Maybe it is something akin to a discussion in another thread about the works of Hienlien.

There ain't nothin' wrong with wanting Star Trek - as long as you don't wear your costume out in public.  I ain't done that since I was 11, and neither should anyone else.

You mean that Burt's a pervert?  He ain't no crank, if you ask me.

And here we tinker with metal, to try to give it a kind of life, and suffer those who would scoff at our efforts. But who's to say that, if intelligence had evolved in some other form in past millennia, the ancestors of these beings would not now scoff at the idea of intelligence residing within meat?
