They claim that at MAX you could live to be 600.(before all hell broke loose in your body) They have done this with minor invertibrates and increased their lifespans to 7 or 8 times the normal time. Also they have done brain transplants with apes and monkeys.they are using stem cells to grow new spinal cord tisue to overcome parilization. imagine being paralized in your body one day at 50 and waking up in another body who was braindead at 21 and making a fresh start.
What would you be the same sex? or would you want to give the other sex a try?
I would remain a male. I like writting my name in the snow when i PEE.
But considering these new fields of science are new they estimate it wont come to pass for about another 200 years.
One of the things that they'll be able to do in the not-too-distant future, with DNA science, will be to make an exact replica of your body. They'll scoop out the brain when the replica is "born", feed the body growth accelerators to make it age to about 30, and freeze it. By doing this, you'll always have spare body parts to replace any organs that are sick or injured.

Of course, the religious nuts will be against it so it may not happen any time soon.
