Yea, Maybe Al Gore will volunteer for this?
He could save us all from global warming if he is around long enough.

All this isn't necessary.

Idiot. "Futurama" heads in a jar. Might one suppose amputating the
body will lead to the whole body analogue of phantom limb pain? How's
that for an itch that cannot be scratched? Any part of the sensory
brain that is denied input begins to scream. Severe hearing deficit
in a narrow frequency window eventually results in horrible tinnitus.
The simple cure is to slap on pair of headphones and blast in that
frequency. Teh erhosn feel loved and they stop screaming.

Cut off your head then call 911.

This is the first time I snarfed doritos instead of Pepsie.
Thank's AL. That was god damn funny.

This brings up the image of giant harvesting machines, each which
stands on 3 legs and has large snake-like appendages which snatch up
large numbers of people at a time, to place in a waiting carriage for
the mulching machine. Each, of course, has a powerful plasma beam
emitting device for self-defense.

uncle al, ordinarily i would agree with you based on the information
given but let me present an elaboration which will put the matter in a
new light. firstly, the head will retain sensory and motor function,
retaining all five senses. secondly, those centres of the brain
responsible for coordination of other bodily functions will generate
specific frequencies. from experimentation these frequencies are known
and can be used as a basis for neural dialogue thereby retaining a
sense of control over some approximation to the human body.

Do you read what you write? Losing an arm is a lifetime of discomfort
but losign a body is no problem at all?

al, having seen a documentary on this issue on national geographic
channel i think it was, recently, i witnessed the experiments done in
russia and america where a severed head connected to a life support
machine retains awareness and responds to sensory stimuli. further,
extracted brains continued to show em activity and transplanted heads
made two headed animals viable. so you see, the science is elementary,
what is lacking is the political will to see the research through.
about the potential loss of sensation of a body: as i made it clear in
my previous posting, the interactive nature of the electrodes fitted
to the skull cap ensures that the brain is not deprived of sensory
input or motor control of limbs etc. infact i feel it would be
possible to enhance interactive capabilities by acquiring control of
sophisticated machinery through the computer interface in the visual
cortex coupled with motor responses as appropriate.

how about this for a novel development? the patient wears a mobile
life-support device on his/her back which is connected to the patients
own blood supply. in the event of organ failure, the machine switches
on the appropriate program and simultaneously sends a message to the
nearest hospital in order to receive a replacement organ which can now
be grown to order.

if you are concerned about the weight of this unit, then it can be
attached to an electric wheelchair. with this in mind, i contacted an
agency in japan to take this matter further. but i suspect that i will
hear no response, as prolonging life is clearly a low priority for any
world government.
now, consider the consequences of extreme old age. some of us might
take the line that 'we would rather die than lose our place in the
sun' in which case there will be two groups of people, the immortals
and the mortals. as befits their abilities, the immortals may decide
to offer their services in the teaching profession or government or
senior management whereas the beautiful mortals might decide to become
entertainers and soldiers and builders.
what do you think of that?

betcha your head/brain doesn't last too much longer than the rest of

Your die-hard conventional definition of dying is debatable. ;)
