Useless crap.

That article was an advertising gimmick.

it was the anesthesia, not the surgery. -- j

I would take the treatment so I could live longer to where Nanotechnology can inject nannites into my body to repair my lumbar and cervical spine ravage by severe arthritus. Then repair my brain chemistry so I wouldn't have to take expensive meds to take care of that but causes weight gain. But most of all is to experience being free of pain from what I mentioned above.

This is genuine but it's only the start of a long chain of discoveries needed before they can deliver.

The cryonics community has been watching these folks for some time now.

If we are 18, hot to trot and the world is our
oyster, not wanting to live forever would be
the furthest thought from our mind!! Ah, Youth! Too bad it's wasted on the young...
G.B.Shaw

Oof!
When I check out, I'd rather be hit by a truck than to feel like I had.
That's the point I'm trying to make.
Hope I never have gall bladder surgery, by the way.

Aside from whether this discovery is real or not, I would say that; Yes, I would like to live a very long time, [Conscious human kind was not meant to live and die like the animal kingdom. We became conscious.] Reason?; There are no certainties that any meaningful after life exists, maybe energy doesn't die; just changes...but that's not the issue. The issue is...is it a meaningful, value creating existence? Will it build upon the knowledge, accomplishments and memories of this life?. Or...is there just nothing, no memory, no consciousness or just another form of slavery. As bad as things have gotten here in this life, on earth, in these times...we have choices, hope, relationships and endless dreams of creating value and physically experiencing new things. I do not want to give all that up...not willingly...I'll fight to the last!

I wasn't posting the article/advertisement as a means for sounding the alarm. It just concerns me that people are attempting these types of things because the nature of man, or at least a good many of them, is to find/create a way to assert dominion over others.

I had fentanyl in my system from gall bladder
surgery in 2011 and it felt like I'd been hit
by a truck. -- j

Actually, very early Sean Connery and Charlotte Rampling. Loved the score, Beethoven's 7th.

Exactly what I meant.

Thanks.
I'd still rather get hit by a truck than to waste away but I'm now pressing along just fine.

hey! . I'll miss a lot! . the list of movies and books
which I haven't experienced keeps growing!!! -- j
