Yeah, I've noticed there are some who rail against any attempt to extend human lifespans.

Any change to the order and they are overcome with fear. "who will pay for Soc security?! how long will they collect it?!" Duh, the entire system will change and medical costs would plummet as we'd be far more healthy for more of our lifespans, even for that extended period of time.

Yep. Leon Kass is one of Dubya's more embarassing appointments, and we're just lucky that the mainstream media hasn't noticed.
