Do You Want To Live Forever?

:no:


Wednesday, August 13, 2014, 4:00 PM - Calico, a Google-funded company that's hoping to cure death, is now officially online.
Google launched the company in September, with the official website debuting earlier this month. The biotechnology group aims to "tackle" aging and eventually slow its process.
"Calico is a research and development company whose mission is to harness advanced technologies to increase our understanding of the biology that controls lifespan," the company says on its new website.
"We will use that knowledge to devise interventions that enable people to lead longer and healthier lives. Executing on this mission will require an unprecedented level of interdisciplinary effort and a long-term focus for which funding is already in place."
There isn't much on the site yet but visitors can learn more about the company's six employees.
Some experts believe that it's impossible to live forever, with many arguing that the maximum human lifespan is 125 years, because age-related diseases like dementia and heart disease make it hard to move past that.
Others have argued that slowing or stopping the aging process is the only way to significantly extend the human lifespan.

Quick, get me my rifle. We're having duck stew tonight!

I believe you stole that line from Papa.




















(Of course, he'd also have to go shoot some bacon too.)

Papa has been locked up in MM's crate so he won't be doing much hunting tonight.
