Yes, good point.  Thanks for your objectivity.

It would be beneficial to research how superlongevity is affecting 
countries like Germany.  I seldom do any interviews with German 
magazines/papers/tv.  In fact, since Telepolis netzine in 2000 and 
Franffurter Allgemeine in 2002, it's null.

As an aside, but directly related: I'm thinking that the influence the 
teenagers such as Peaches Geldof will become broad in Europe. She was just 
here in Austin and we spent an afternoon together.  The has made several 
television documentaries on teenagers for Ten Alps television.  ("An 
unexpectedly excellent piece of television" (The Guardian)

If teenagers such as Peaches can make a positive impression on the youth of 
Europe, I would be delighted. When she left our home she put her hands up 
in the air and shouted "Transhumans!"

Our future could be in the hands of teenagers who are activists.

Best,
Natasha
