SENS Foundation would like to draw your attention to an exciting initiative organised by a group of our supporters. The 10,000 people, $1 million to defeat aging Cause on Facebook asks each member to pledge just $100, which becomes payable once a total of 10,000 individuals have made the same pledge.
Those 10,000 donations will provide SENS Foundation with $1 million of additional funding, which will support our critical research into defeating the diseases and disabilities of aging. Over the course of 2010 we intend to increase funding to our LysoSENS program and ramp up work on , as well as continuing to pursue our work on atherosclerosis, immunosenescence, and macular degeneration.
The Cause has already assembled over 1,400 of the members required, and hopes to reach the 10,000-member target by Christmas. Please consider joining them.

Sooo, I didn't see a single mention of any sort of payback for my $100. That's why I wouldn't donate. If they need a grant, go to a bank, they'll probably go bust anyway lol...
Unless they say that those who donate will get this miracle stuff first, I'm not buying, and even then, they'd need to guarantee it. Of course, there is always the Nanotech stuff that I'm sure could add a good 200 years, but 1000 is quite a claim for a civilization that can only record history for like *correct if wrong* 6000 years? If that?

Like I said... I've been hearing these kinds of claims since the 1960's. I remember one was you'd live longer if you took mega doses of vitamin C.. turned out if you did the acid in vitamin C would burn a hole in your stomach...

I said Mega doses those people were taking a lot.
I guess it'd be okay if you worked your way to those kinds of doses but people were slamming half a bottle per day hoping it would make them younger... made them sick...
