Anybody want to bet against radical life extention after reading this article and ones like the previous article on the seven replacement bladders grown from the patients' own cells at Wake Forest Univ.

If we could replace our faulty or worn out pancreases, livers, skin, kidneys, hearts, lungs, etc. and then do it over and over when necessary, exactly how long could lifetimes be extended? Hmmmmm?

If it doesn't work for skin replacement, you'll end up looking like this.

True, but what about the brain itself? Doesn't it deteriorate with age, too, just like any other organ? Don't know myself. Just asking. This stuff is too fascinating!

Hoping for the technology that will one day heal or provide a new pancreas for my son. This sounds wonderfully intriguing...
