A lot of people like gardening, for example, but how many would agree for their bodies to be modified such that they have a difficult to control compulsion to garden? -- Sincerely, John de Rivaz: http://John.deRivaz.com for websites including Cryonics Europe, Longevity Report, The Venturists, Porthtowan, Alec Harley Reeves - inventor, Arthur Bowker - potter, de Rivaz genealogy, Nomad .. and more ----- Original Message ----- > >Freedom from instincts (a transhuman is not motivated by appetite > >for food or sex) > > Freedom from food and sex?
