Subject: How long do you think we've got till. . .

Dear Cryoneters,

	I'd like your opinion.  I'd like to hear your answer to these two
questions:

1.  How many years from now do you think we will defeat aging/death?

2.  How many years from now do you think we will achieve technology that
will allow us to revive and restore to health people who are currently in
biostatis?

	I don't have any particular technology in mind (eg. Nanotechnology,
et. al.) that will make this possible.  I'm mainly just looking for opinions
as to time frame.  If you have something to back it up, that's great.  But
since none of us really know for sure when we will achieve technology like
that, it's all conjecture anyway.  My reason for asking this is I'm doing
some long range financial planning and I'd like to have some basis to act
from (even if it's only an opinion, albeit educated).  Since most of you
have been involved in this a lot longer than I have, you probably have a
much more knowledge/perspective to base a decision on.  Of course, I won't
hold anyone to what they opine.  I welcome anyone's ideas on this.

Sincerely,
Mike Read
