Personally, I do understand some younger people resenting bearing the enormous costs of keeping very sick older people alive, people who are no longer able to contribute much and who are experiencing an extremely poor quality of life. As you have probably figured out from reading the material here, I am concerned with promoting life extension in the context of wellness and productivity. I too follow the sources you mention from time to time and am constantly on the lookout for breakthroughs or developments that have hope of leading to breakthroughs. In fact, I have a gut feeling that we will be seeing one or two more quite soon now.<br /> Vince</p> Hi David G Johnson

I am 62 years old, retired after working 25 years helping mentally ill/substance abuse clients in the community (I still work part-time in a group home for mentally ill). When I retired I sold my house (no more yard work or house repairs!) in Connecticut, bought a travel trailer and a small lot in a RV park in Florida and now I'm a "Snowbird". I travel from campground to campground meeting new people and seeing "What's over the hill"! What does have me concerned though is that there seems to be a movement recently from the younger generation that older people are a burden because they require more hospital care. There are now more elderly people than young and I can see where they may resent paying for the high medical expenses of others. The food industry continues to entice customers to eat their "delicious" food and the pharmaceutical companies keep pushing legislation to close Health Food stores so everyone has to get doctor prescriptions ($). I do find refuge in reading blogs like yours, the Calorie Restriction Society forum and the Imminst.org forum. I too hope for some more life-prolonger Vitamin/substance breakthroughs,like the rediscovering of Vitamin D3, to help save the Health Food stores and make the lives of the elderly better. Hi Vince,

Everything you learn will benefit those coming behind you so there should be an army of supporters. There are a lot younger than you that have shorter life expectancies because of lifestyle and genetics. I admire your curiosity and open mindedness and all power to you! Thanks for sharing your learning so freely. I am barracking for you Vince to have life prolonger beat death stalker as long as you possibly can.
