Jay Olshansky and other age researchers to get far more funding for their field from the U.S. Government!?? (For the background see the last chapter 'The Recommendation' of the article 'In Pursuit of the Longevity Dividend' in The Scientist back from 2006: http://www.grg.org/resources/TheScientist.htm) Without this massive increase in funding I doubt that we will see such a 7 year pill any time soon. @ Chris Mooney: Thanks for your post but did they report any news about the political progress of the longevity dividend at the Techonomy session because originally it was an intitiative of S.
