This man: http://www.acceleratingfuture.com/people/gallery/aubrey-de-grey/aubrey_1.jpg

Is Aubrey De Grey, militant biogerentolgist, who believes he can defeat ageing by a throwing lots of chemicals, hormones and technology at an organism. He claims that ageing is merely an 'engineering issue'. He also refuses to beleive any ideas other than his own, and has gone as far as offering $20,000 to anyone that disproves his own ideas.

If you scroll down a bit, you see an open letter to Aubrey, suggesting that we could apply his 'running at the sun, screaming and chucking whatever comes to hand' technique to the issue of making pigs fly

WELL I FOUND IT AMUSING
