Life In 2056
 

Apparently 70 of the worlds best scientists have got together and discussed what the world will be like 50 years from now, they believe that we will have found evidence of alien life and live well into our hundreds, however the burning question imo regards hoverboards :), anyone else got any ideas?

I'll probably be dead in 2056, so it doesn't really affect me LOL

Please invent a way for me to eat all I want and not put any weight on, and an optical device that will persuade the ladies I look like Brad Pitt and not a gravel pit.

The only problem is we'll all be living to 100 and having to work until we are 80 before we can get a pension.

Nick Griffin will find out he's not really Welsh, and that he was adopted. His birth parents were high-caste Parsis, who emigrated from India to Wales, but due to racial discrimination, could not keep all of their children.

As Nick was the scrawniest and caused most problems, he was the one chosen to be put up for adoption.

When Nick Griffin discovered he was, in fact, the son of immigrants from the Indian sub-continent, he started a new political party - the BNJP.

The party's main aim was foment bad feeling against all "native" British people, who he accused of taking all jobs immigrants normally did, and also accused the "Christian Europeans" of molesting and defiling young immigrant girls.

Didnt japanese scientists work out how to remove the death gene?

Though of course, only problem with that is, they dont know enough about dna to combat anything sorrouding it, so the animals they tested this on died anyway :p:

I'm sorry i don't understand you, do you mean you're a monkeyboy? if so what is a monkeyboy? is that your religion or something?.

Re: Life In 2056
 

Yep, according to a chap on the radio last night, in 20 years they'll be able to replace every limb and organ in the body, he was also advocating something he called 'youthful immortality', basically the average life expectancy in the developed world is around 80, however for everyday we live until reaching 80, our life expectancy increases by 5 hours

Re: Life In 2056
 

Along the same lines as my last post, with a South Korean take on the future, mobile phone batteries that last for months, chameleon soldiers, something similar to monocots healing us and the internet delivering smells as well as information all await us in the next ten years

Although it seems the smelly internet concept has been around quite a while
