Very good speaker, really engaging indeed, no matter if one agrees or not with what she is saying.

Implications are huge, but that's hardly a basis for refusing to use this.

Let's colonize Mars first and think about this later.

lets increase lifespan so we can see the colonsiation of mars... yah? sounds like a better plan! or do both, same time :-) I want to live 100s or even thousands of years to see discoveries... life should have no limits.

we'll be dead by then; akin to building the house first then the foundations

[Natokowsky]

probably seeing as Obamas made huge budget cuts to NASA. Space tourisms already a reality. Sergei Krikalev was up there 748 days. Earths becoming increasingly unhospitable and toxic. We have the resources to build a colony on Mars ten years tops.

I would be very excited to see this type of gene technology perfected- who would want to pass up on the elusive elixir of life? Or at least help to significantly lengthen youth and life in general.

However, what about over-crowding? Scarceness of resources? Environmental damage?

It seems like a great idea in theory, but I'm highly skeptical that the reality of this coming to fruition would be quite so endearing.
