We will live forever after we die. Another 50 seems plausable

People have to learn a lot more about nature and its history, before claiming such nonsense. We may think that we are knowledgeable, but against nature we only are tiny individuals that cannot influence very much mother nature at all. Back to basics and create more respect for nature is a better option, when such scientist want to claim more than nature will provide. Most of them do make such claims to obtain better publicity in the media. Like the scientist in S.Korea with his stem-cell research that later turned out to be faked.
