Scientists can make mice age at a slower rate. Is that good?
Is that however something "logical" to pursue? Is immortality "natural"? Is nature wise or should we seek to deny our own nature as mortals? If common "logic" dictates the fear of death maybe the correct "solution" is the acceptance of that death, since common logic has almost never given the solution to any great problem. Thinking based on personal interest - like the "I want to live for ever" interest - was never a good source for philosophy...
