Default Live Long Enough to Live Forever

Live Long Enough to Live Forever

This is the first blog I've written with no poker content that I think can have a profound impact on some of the readers. I really hope some of you will take the suggestion and read the book in question.

Anyway, I'd love comments from people that think I'm crazy, or people that have read the book already.

I did some reading on this subject a while back and was actually skimming thru this book last week at the bookstore. I'll probably end up reading it, but I have a few others to get thru first. Good entry, good stuff.

ZJ,

The world would run out of natural resources before anyone reaches age 5,000.

Plus, isn't our generation the first generation in U.S. history that will have a lower standard of living than the previous one?

Marty, you're thinking three dimensionally. You have to think in the 4th dimension!

Frankly, believing any of this tosh is a waste of the 4th dimension. And it's place on your bookshelf is a waste of the other three.

IMHO.

The idea of living longer by eating a more nutritous diet is absurd to you? I guess some people just don't like facts / common sense.

Living past 120 years by just changing your diet *is* absurd. Living longer in general obviously isn't.

cool on your wild deductive abilities, Holmes!

How did you know I was talking about the nutrition specifically and not about the absurd idea of living forever using all the things mentioned in the link? I sure didn't!

Enjoy your pine nuts or sand or whatever, if you're pressing the nutrition angle.

But you do realise, you won't live forever? It'll just seem like it [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
