    this is good -- even Seagal says that he's afraid of
    needles, in Under Siege!

    and as a dj for decades, I already know that a high level
    of sound can inject drugs -- it puts alcohol into folks
    quite readily! -- j

    Intriguing indeed. If it works, it could be a real breakthrough in applied medicine. Much closer to the Star Trek's doctor's device for curing patients. It's stuff like this that helps to make humanity tolerable.

    What I wouldn't give except my life for fifty more years to see what science brings us...Science Fiction is going to have to pick up the pace to stay ahead of Science Fact.

      I have to agree, except my curiosity, and disappointment, has me less desirous of a longer life span

        My idea so far is live to be 100. Work 15 to 60. Do something profitable 61 to 100. Completely mobile and lucid. Drop dead smiling . No wasted time. I picked 15 because it was a good age to leave school and childhood both much the same thing. GED and work at an education instead of being an attendee. Something like that. :Last thought that made me smile. 'Gee I wonder if life will ever get boring?"

          I can't fathom an off-switch. It seems a monumental waste, or a cruel natural joke, and an obscene waste of potential to allow humankind to achieve the heights it has only to have it entirely blink-out of existence. Whether I die and meet God (I do have issue with monarchy, on bended knee, and happy-happy subservience for all eternity (I don't need gold streets neither or a free room)), be reborn into another life or species, or phase-change into some type of energy which has consciousness (and can freely explore?), I would be content, my curiosity sated.

          Clark - Childhoods End, to me is frightening, but all too possible.

            Either way I have my get out of jail free and collect card. Besides where's the waste? If you did your job right immortality is called progeny.

              The waste is in the knowledge, potential, and progress of each being's contribution. You can leave a progeny while moving to another phase of existence. Immortality, to me, is never-ending consciousness/self-awareness/sentience.

              We will never know what will happen when we die until we die. It leaves ample room for speculation. :)

    Oh great...make it easier to get poisons into your body.
    If you have a healthy immune system you need Not a vaccine...not to mention, there are many natural things to help it along. I use a product that not only boosted my immune system above and beyond by also, (using an extract of Larch bark) puts a slippery coating on my antibodies so that NOTHING can attached to my immune system and gets washed out of the body...DOE...dead (up)on exit. It's called Proberry and is sold by http://right4yourtype.com

    I have not even had so much as a cold in over 20 years and the last 5, I have worked in a disease ridden environment- A Hospice Hospital...I don't wear gloves nor do I use alcohol germ killers...

    I speculate that at some point science is going to catch up with all disease -- so that anyone who manages to still be alive at that time will live practically forever. (Of course violence can't be eliminated or 100% protected against, but there are ways to improve your chances against it.)
