By the time I am 70 we will quite probably have the medical technology (such as artificial or replacement organs) to keep me alive another 30 years. By the time I am 100 we will have the technology to keep me alive until I am 200, and the advances made in the next hundred years after that will enable me to live until I'm 500.
