Anti-Aging Drug Discovered

The largest single concern with the 'fear' of death, at least from my perspective, is that no one is CERTAIN of what will happen after someone dies. Yes religon says you'll meet your spritual creator or whatever, but we just don't know WHAT will happen. There is no concrete put-it-on-the-examination-table evidence as to what happens.

If we were to find out THAT, then maybe not so many people would try and cheat the grim reaper (OR it could be the reverse: MORE people try and cheat death).

I'm taking a couple grains of salt with this, because we've heard many times before in the past of a 'Fountain' of youth. Doesn't matter if its some prestigious scientific group making the prolimation, we need to see COLD HARD PROOF that this molecule can do the damm thing.

Changes I PREDICT in society from the use of this in the next 50 to 100 years (SHOULD THE ABOVE ARTICLE PROVE TRUE):
1. More people will accept adulthood easier because they know they can retain thier youthful looks longer.
2. In group-based cultures (Japan, India, Parts of Europe) the elderly may be seen more in respect then they already are, where as in Individualistic cultures (The US, Australia, Parts of Europe) they will be come to be shunned or pitied.
3. In like 50 years or so, People who retain thier wrinkles will become rebels or iconic representation of natrual life cycle.
4. A split of culture sense will develop between those who constantly revive thier bodily tissues and organs and those who can't or won't go through the processes.
5. The computer industry will probably push for longer service terms (For ex: Microsoft would support Windows Vista 5 years longer then it plans to now)
6. The two-term limit will be repealed, and an exceptionally well qualified man will be the US President for decades, given the ability to continue to perform on the job much longer then normal.
7. Death WILL come, but much longer, and I expect the death of a loved one to have more impact and meaning then it does today.
8. Makeup Companies will shift thier base industry into cosmetics which contain the molcule and will push heavily with marketing for "TRUE" Revilalift makeups and "Age Defying" creams.
9. The insurance industry will come to blows as thier policies are continued much longer then they anticipated, and they are not in a situation to adjust for the cost. Lawsuits claiming 'unfair change of policy' will ensue.
10. Sadly, since youthful looking skins and a youth-oriented culture will probably develop, there will be a rise in the number of sex crimes against minors (Under 18) as Teens are now seen as cult-objects.
11. Ironically, now that teens are the dominant culture force in america (Currently it is the young 20-25 year old) there will less suicides since more people will listen to thier stupid emo bullshit. However the transition to adulthood will be laden with depression cases because they are no longer part of the 'scene'.
12. Late in the 21st Century, it will be considered a social taboo to tell your real age in public (Regardless of Gender) and the information will only be on IDs.
13. More fictional stories about Death and the Afterlife will develop.
14. A different culture of astinence and safe-sex will push the chinese government to developing safer ways of having sex without
having children as to stop the predicted over population increase(Maybe called "Double Over Population"?). This will lead to
pregnancy seen in China as a sacred event and one to be 'greatly' appreciated.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
