100th Birthdays May Soon Be The Norm

CNN sucked me in with a great headline: 100th Birthdays May Soon Be The Norm.

Being that I have several close family members in their 80's, this interested me, so I clicked on the link. I am always interested in new technologies that improve the quality of life.

But, it is CNN, and I shouldn't be surprised. The article had little to do with technologies to improve and lengthen lifespan, and a lot to do with "the increasing gap between the rich and the poor." It seems like only people from "rich" states will live this long and that people from "poor" states are going to die young.

I get so sick of this blatherskite. If the article is just a socialist "screw the U.S." piece, just state it.
