    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    He's done a couple of rehearsals with kadavers, so that's a good start.

    You could just keep going - a new body every 10 years. Eat as much as you like.

    As long as you wear a helmet you can do what you like.

    Just a few ideas I'm going to email him. Seems like a nice bloke who has his head screwed on

    That would be pretty amazing but It still unsettles me in a Frankenstein, grave robbers kind of way. Body parts 4 U.

    What the future holds eh? I wonder if the rich will have access to a level of regeneration that the rest of us cant afford.

    Yes it already is with the cost and availability of certain treatments.

    I would think that all the cryogenic freezing and head transplants are pretty useless unless we crack the DNA code of eternal youth.

    How the hell do they get a head to accept a new body? The mind boggles!

    I think our lives are far too short. If I had about 150 to 200 years I would have more chance to get my life sorted out I wanted the wisdom when I was young

    Bet you'd wake up with a bit of a headache. Or somebody else's erection!

    I agree. It takes me years just to sort out the simplest things. 3 or 4 thousand active years would do. Reckon by the time I reached 2000 I'd have got myself properly organized.
