[ExI] Life extension

[Tara Maya]

Lots of people don't want to be immortal. But nobody wants to die.

I really think this is a classic case of the consumer not knowing they want something until they actually see it for sale. If you could box "Don't Die Today" or "Youth and Vigor" in a box and sell it, people would buy.

Eternal Youth, I think, would indeed be a better selling point than immortality per se.

One would have to consciously adopt a mindset of accepting and adapting the new ways.  Otherwise one's mind would die, soon (within some years) followed by one's body.
