X-Message-Number: 26215 Date: Sun, 22 May 2005 00:56:30 -0400 From: Thomas Donaldson <> Subject: Final to Basie TO Basie, again and again and again: It is outright false to believe that by altering genes we incur no risks while by using various drugs with the same effects we do. Other than to point out that my (former) wife is now involved in breeding horses, and I do speak to her, your comments about how they will explain just how inbreeding explains aging look to me like total blarg. When I discussed inbreeding in my own comments, I pointed out that inbreeding might very well prove favorable if we inbred animals all of which had genes promoting longevity. Your reply to this was blarg, blarg, blarg. You may have actually convinced some on Cryonet of your ideas in this line. That is why I have continued to reply. I have grown tired of replying to utter nonsense and do not plan to reply again unless and until you manage to say something substantive. Best wishes and long long life to all, Thomas Donaldson Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=26215
