GOOD Is “Going de Grey”
Aubrey de Grey is like the Alan Moore of transhumanism, both in surliness and in beard. GOOD asks him some basics:
G: I know you’ve heard this question before, but wouldn’t living for hundreds of years get a little boring?
AD: Yeah, right. Wouldn’t it be so terribly boring not getting Alzheimer’s? At least you had the sense to be embarrassed at even asking the question.
Zing!
