oohhhh what a fun topic. Maybe if there was a female genetic freak that could choose when she ovulates, she could get old old old and be pre-menopause. I think the coment about the birth controll pills is very interesting, I wonder if AARP would study a long-term study of that type. Then again, having 'eggs' and having good, genetically sound 'eggs' may not bee the same thing. This made me think of johnatian swift's take on immortals. In gulliver's travels, the immortals are people who just get older and older and older and don't die, but become useless. Like you said, I'd much rather be a young-ish immortal. As for the aging and heart beat/ or breath thing, I really find I disagree with that idea. Off the top of my head I can't think of any exceptions, but I know there are some. If you'll pardon a scientist moment, 'corelation is not causation' I'll also admit, I really don't like the idea of a timer like that either, if feels constraining. Anyway, I don't know that your particular thoughts about female immortality have been brought up before, so, cool!
