Woah.

Yeah, that was a hard read to say the least.
If anyone is remotely interested in science, technology, or 'futurists,' (That is, someone that tries to predict the future) I highly recommend reading The Singularity Is Near by Ray Kurzweil if you haven't already. The predictions he makes seem far-fetched, to say the least. He puts the date of his 'Singularity,' that is, when a point is reached where technical progress will be so fast that unenhanced human intelligence will be unable to follow it, (Read the book and it will make sense) to occur around 2045. However, that will supposedly be the culmination of many breakthroughs in technology, including genetics, nanotechnology, and robotics.

Personally, I'm not sure if I completely believe it. Kurzweil promises completely realistic virtual reality (As in The Matrix) by the late 2020's, or being able to live indefinitely by the late 2030's. We'll be able to sit in the bottom of a pool for hours on end thanks to improved nanobots for red blood cells (Supposedly, a model is already made for a nanobot that is hundreds of thousands of times more efficient than our original red blood cells) reverse aging, eliminate any disease, change our bodies or personalities at will, among many other things.

I'm convinced, though, that if ANY of this happens, we're in for quite a ride.
