    Sure is going to be fun to be an immortal neanderthal in 1 million years. Good luck getting laid with all that hair and brow ridges. If you're immortal, the human race will evolve and leave you behind!

    Plastic surgery, dude. Besides, guys with lots of hair and heavy brows still get some. Look at my father

    Maybe a million years from now they'll invent a machine for removing body hair...some kind of sharp metal utensil...

    Granted, Im all for elongating the human lifespan. Im just disagreeing that it should be infinite.

    Very interesting thread....kind of like light philosophy...

    Anyway, I personally would jump at a chance to become immortal. But then the stuff they say about light being of value only because of the dark isn't all hogwash either. Maybe for someone immortal, after many thousand years of life it will get tiring. I mean all their friends and loved ones would die while they would live on, so that's a lot of pain.
    So the only good thing is that they have the chance to learn, 'everything'.
