Thanks for the kind words. Yes, I'd like to live beyond 120. But absent a medical revolution, that isn't going to be.

If my body has failed to the point where I can no longer do the things I enjoy, and there was no hope of improvement, I'd probably rather check out.

In the meantime, I intend to work until they carry me out in a box. I have no interest in puttering about in the garden :-/ and playing bingo. Ugh.

You're going to be on the tail end of the age scale, but I suspect if you keep extremely healthy and try out any new treatments and relevant supplements as soon as you can get them, you'll still be able to participate in longevity escape velocity.
I have been looking into "The End of Alzheimers" book. It's recommendations are simply healthy living.
