    So scientists have been researching injecting blood from younger mice into older mice to reverse some of the effects of aging..... Does this mean OAPs will now be using denchers with fangs installed in order to steal the blood of their younger victims? New blood 'recharges old brain', mouse study suggests[^]

      Actually not a bad idea at all. However, you must do it with your OWN BLOOD. What happens is this... You take many pints of your own blood and freeze it (Obviously over time, not all at once!) Build up a reserve of maybe 20 pints. As you age, (and by this it means usually post 70 years) you start pumping in the blood you took when you were much younger. This blood is much more densely populated with T-Cells. Et Voilà, you have lots of super-repairo juice running through your veins and into your organs and brain. All those T-Cells (that die out as you get older) will then be doing their job.

            I wonder how many people are tempted by this idea Dave? Also maybe it's a good business venture?

                We would need a good registry system and a load of Liquid Nitrogen! But yeah, charge by the Litre/Year and make lots of money.

                          I see a definite business opportunity here, plus a way to end world poverty. All us (relatively) rich old people will "borrow" the children of impoverished foreigners, feed them up to good health, then bleed them long enough to recharge our aged selves, and ship them back home with a full belly and a fiver in their pockets. In short order, all the old people will have their youth back, and the poor people will have better health, full tums, and a little spending money, to boot. Everybody wins! Of course, we'll probably need to neuter the kids to prevent us from being overrun by foreigners, but that's a small price to pay. :-D
