The human life span has the potential to be increased infinitely. The human body is a machine that has evolved naturally over millions of years. All machines, no matter their complexity, have the potential for modification and upgrade.

Our “machine” is one of great complexity relative to our primitive understandings. It suffers from two major defects in regard to longevity. The first defect is the replicative nature of cells. Cells reproduce by copying themselves. A cell both does some work as required by the greater system for which it belongs and to also make copies of itself. Any machine exposed to the field of deployment is subjected to the forces within the deployment environment.

The deployed environment of a cell can be quite harsh at times. One of the greatest threats within the cell working environment is the virus. A virus is a living creature that is so small that it may live within a cell. Once inside of a cell, a virus may actually consume parts of that cell for sustenance. If a virus randomly consumes parts of a machine that both performs some useful function for its host entity and replicates itself, it may become damaged in both contexts.

In the context of self reproduction, this can be devastating for the host entity. Once a cell has been damaged in its internal reproduction characteristics, it may continue to reproduce even if its design may no longer contribute to its host entity or may even in fact cause damage therein.

It would appear then, that the essential defect of the human genomic design is that our cells are lacking in a principle of design that would enable them to verify their own design plan as possessing its original integrity prior to reproducing itself. In digital infrastructure systems we call this a checksum, hash signature or data integrity.

Therefore, the solution may entail adding to all cells as a part of their reproductive process, a required step to first verify the integrity of their design details before making another copy of itself. We must introduce either a DNA hashing algorithm or some other sort of checksum process.

According to the Canadian Cancer Society:

Cancers are caused by a change in, or damage to, one or more genes. Most changes in a gene are because of a gene mutation. Mutations can stop genes from working properly. Genes that have mutations that are linked to cancer are sometimes called cancer genes.

Gene mutations happen when:

We are born with a mutated gene that is either inherited from a parent or that develops in an embryo.

We are exposed to something around us that damages our genes, like cigarette smoke [or a virus].

Genes wear out as we get older.

[EDIT NOTE: I would question this idea "genes wear out as we get older". What does this mean? Does it mean that they develop defects in their replicative nature? There appears to be a great lack of rigor in all of this.]

The second defect, as stated above in the introduction, is, well, we are programmed to die. Our brain kills us beginning at around age 40. Most of us, from forty years and onward, are slowly being killed by our brains and perhaps other time related design flaws. It would appear that we have something like a kill switch in our brains. Perhaps this evolved into us as a way to avoid the suffering that arises from being slowly eaten by cancer as we age.

For whatever reason this kill button as developed within our brains, must be deactivated. Furthermore, our basic DNA should be redesigned to no longer develop this brain “feature”. I surmise that the brain kill button is connected to the pituitary and other gland factories and shuts down the 10 or so critical hormones required to maintain a youthful body.

If this switch were immediately disconnected, these factories would likely recover and continue to function at a more optimal level. It is my goal to disconnect the kill switch in my brain within the next five years.

This brings me to the final point of this essay. Our surgical methods are barbaric and lacking in any reasonable semblance of advanced methodology. Our internal visualization systems are primitive. Other than somewhat cleaning the operating work environment (making sterile surgical instruments, hands and the air), little has changed in our surgical methods over the last 500 years.

I propose to develop an medical operative system that would essentially be a computer screen that allows for surgery to occur remotely, internally, with zero “cutting” to get at internal structures. Visualization could scale up and down and utilize various light sources at various spectrums.

I have already worked out much of this remote manipulation technology. If you are wealthy, or simply someone who wishes to extend your own life to hundreds or perhaps thousands of years, then join me and assist me in developing this regen technology.

I may then have the support required to develop these technologies, systems and manufacturing methods required to extend the human life span.
