Re: [Sci.nanotech] Assembler in ten years?



I do realize that Nanotechnology won't bring us immortality, but it
does have the potential to give us lifespans of several hundred to
perhaps thousands of years.

Turn on your television on any given day and you'll see images of
starving children and people suffering from diseases that have no cure.


Nanotechnology may be able to save these people.

If you drastically reduce the death rate tomorrow you will have a human
population explosion in short order.
This would circumvent the natural process of selection.
Not until humans are able to quickly expand throughout the cosmos is
this a good idea.
