I see future generations living 200 years or more but I think there has to be a limit. If there is one organ that can never be replaced it's the human brain and I think at 150 to 200 years of age (unless there is a great discovery in medicine that can stop it) senile decay will set the maximum (and I speak from experience. :bg).

well - that senile decay that you are experiencing is due to cellular degradation
if they manage to prolong our lives, it will have to be by preventing this degradation for all cells, including the brain
of course, drinking beer all the time isn't going to help, either   :bdg

How about Pure Malt ? That just re-programs the brain in sociable ways.  :bg
