How many ways can I describe it? How many words can I use?
Do even I experience it fully? Let alone can I convey it...
If I described it nonstop for a year straight, could you paint a photo-accurate picture of it?

The Problem with life extension in most ways it's envisioned, is that it approaches "self" as a physical construct, and seeks to further it's physical longevity, or offer some sort of surrogate physical form for the mind.
