The REAL Napster

Life extension is good for 2 things:
Big Pharma and the IRS.
They want you to live longer so you can pay more taxes and spend half of your limited income on drugs big pharma will shove down your throat. No thanks

The QUALITY of life does not improve by living longer, but rather living every day to it's fullest.

The opportunity is made obvious by continuous soaring costs in the world’s largest industry, healthcare, unfunded Medicare type liabilities in every industrialized country, and the demographic aging of populations and below replacement fertility rates together with massive demand and willingness to spend on longevity remedies.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://futurememes.blogspot.com/2008/07/next-big-vc-market-life-extension.html"><SPAN>What is the Life Extension Market?</SPAN></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://futurememes.blogspot.com/2008/07/next-big-vc-market-life-extension.html">he life extension market is the commercialization of scientific findings from stem cell, immunology, cancer, regenerative medicine and other areas of research.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://futurememes.blogspot.com/2008/07/next-big-vc-market-life-extension.html">The research linkage between products and research will hopefully become stronger and more standardized.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/99AF1FF2-4370-49BE-BC4C-8A54D41C8C60/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
