When you're 105 years old, you'll very likely feel the same as you do right now.<br /><br />There will be immortality. There will be some sort of "filtering" process, where the risk-takers, depressed people, and bored people eventually die or get killed. But a percentage of us, people who enjoy life, and constantly reinvent themselves and seek out new and exciting things to do, will get older and older.<br /><br />A more interesting question is: What happens to children? If nobody dies, will we stop having babies?Craig A.
