Ralph Zuranski: Yeah, boy! I fully agree with that! Well, Dave, I really appreciate your time, and I just am excited. I hope I can live long enough so that I can live indefinitely.
Dave Kekich: Well, how old are you know, Ralph?
Ralph Zuranski: Fifty-seven.
Dave Kekich: You are fifty-seven? If you follow the rules that I spell out in SALADS™, and I am going to have to have an expanded version in a month or so, so check back in a month or so because there will be more there. I don't see any reason, barring an accident or bad luck.
You could come down with a bad disease or something, but if you take your normal life span, which is you could probably be expecting to live to at least 80, at 58, that gives you another 23 years.
However, if you take care of yourself and the average lifespan accounts for all the people who died young, so that means you should actually live longer if you take care of yourself, if you account for people who don't take care of themselves, that should put you well above 80.
All of the things that we are developing now, between now and the time we are able to control aging, are going to add more and more years to your life, and there is going to be a point--right now, we are adding a couple of months to a lifespan, a couple of months or so, every year, and it is growing more and more.
There is going to be a time when, every year that goes by, we would have learned enough to add more every year to people's life- spans. So if we hang in there long enough, we are going to be living well beyond what is considered to be our expected lifespan today.
So do I think we are going to be able to reverse aging in 23 years? No. But maybe not too much after that. And there is no reason, if you take care of yourself now, and if you don't have a disease or condition that will shorten your life, or some terrible genetic condition that we won't be able to reverse in the near future, there is no reason we couldn't live to 100.
I think that would give you plenty of time, Ralph, to make that milestone.
