Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
In this thread, Meadbh posted a link to an article about a gentleman who is almost 105 years old, and who still swims competitively. It reminded me of a question I pose to myself from time to time (which I'm sure many of us have asked ourselves occasionally) and that is - if it were possible to live to be very old, would you want to?
Putting the realities of biology and medical science aside for a moment, what if the average lifespan was 150, and it was possible in some cases to live to be even older, with good physical health. Would you want to live this long?
I do have my own thoughts on the subject, but I'll hold off for the time being. I'm interested to know what others think, even though it's a rather fanciful subject.
