Subject: TED talk on neurological diseases

The bad news: We'll see an explosion of neurological
diseases around the world as the population ages --
certainly something for cryonicists to consider. 

The interesting news: Protein-folding disorders seem
to explain a lot of these diseases. Moreover, the
speaker claims that people with neurological diseases
tend to suffer a lower incidence of most kinds of
cancer, a correlation I hadn't heard before.
