Transhumanism

All very well to live a 1000 years if you can do it in a 30 or 40 year old body. Don’t know so much about a 100 or 200 year old body.

Why not a 20 year old body - that could be fun. Remember being able to stay up all night and not feel like you’ve been run over by a train the next morning?

Did anyone here ever read the book
“A History of the World in 10 1/2 Chapters”
by Julian Barnes? One of the chapters is about him waking up in heaven one morning. He gets served the best breakfast he ever had - grapefruit segments that seperate easily from the skin, grilled tomato that’s just firm enough, etc. An since he’s there for all of eternity, he reads all the books that have ever been written, until he runs out of books…

That used to sound like my idea of heaven, just reading and reading forever. Unfortunately I don’t think I’d enjoy a very large proportion of the books out there, I mean imagine being stuck reading Danielle Steele for all eternity…

Wrong spot Hermione, that’d be hell!
