I have been watching closely the medical and psychological advances of the upper end of the human race. I am amazed at what I see. It is now theoretically possible for some humans to live to 100 or more years and more and more as cancer and alzheimer's and senile dementia are defeated one by one, quality life will be championed into the 100s for more and more people worldwide.
There is a good reason to have strong and wise people who have survived everything to 80 or 100 or more years around. They can teach us what we need to know about the past so we can survive the future.
For example, because I'm 60 both my parents and their parents as well as their brothers and sisters all survived the Great Depression and World War II. What they all survived and what their experiences were then will help us all survive this year and on into the future.
"For those who have forgotten the mistakes of the past are doomed to repeat them."
