Yes I would. I would like to be able to look at the technologies of the day and then wonder how we got so dependent on them...like today's cell phone technology to someone born in the early 1900's
But then again, you don't have to wait that long...some people born in the 50's still look at the cell phone in amazement.

That all depends on my physical and mental state.

I estimate that if I keep eating pumpkin seeds, my life will be extended by 3 days. They are just that healthy for you!

Do you have an online shop where I can buy those enhanced pumpkin seeds of yours?

I hope you take paypal.

Yes, I would like to live to 100. If nothing else, just to piss off those in Obamacare.

It all depends on whether my mental faculties are there and I can still get around. If I'm just dead weight then it's time to expire.

YES!

While the body becomes weak, the mind only grows with age...unless you go senile or something.

Ask the very old (90+) that question. My Grandmother being a93 always talked about becoming hundred lately she talks about finishing with life...so as long as you enjoy life it's great but what when you don't anymore and there is no positive prognosis (on your health anyway)?

I'll live to be 163 years old, and I'll have a ball 'til the last day. I've seen this in my vision quests. It's the truth.
