    Yes, I am one year closer to living to 2,000. That is if the longevity gurus of Silicon Valley figure out a way to stop aging, e.g. (aging is a disease). But I'm not holding my breath that one day I will be as old as a Roman coin of Tiberius.

    Also, the sentiment reminds me that I need to put a denarius in my mouth before I pass away so the boatman ferries me across Styx to Elysium. Surely, all ancient CTers will remember to do this.

    They have been looking for a "Fountain of Youth" since Ponce De Leon could not find it in Florida. Scientists are unravelling the DNA code....could happen/ even reverse ageing. But in the meantime/ healthy lifestyle choices/ tons of aerobic execise/ positive outlook on life/ having a nice hobby like coin collecting/ couple of cold beers, might help to get us there.
