    If you could live forever at a chosen age, what would that age be? Being female I'd like to live forever at 42yrs. I'd be young, but not too young, I'd be old but I'd have some wisdom of hindsight (hopefully)I'd still love life, retain some of my looks, and be able to be reasonably fit

    Don't want to live forever... it would suck when all the stars are gone and you're alone for eternity floating in a light less vacuum.

    If I could stop somewhere around 30 that would be great. To take a quote from one of my favorite books, I plan to live forever or die trying.

    Actually there wont, there are 5 disinct ages to the universe and right now we are in the most active one, if you lived and could exist through to the last stage - the dark age of the universe this is what it would be like...

    Dark Era

    The Dark Era is defined as "n > 101". By this era, with only very diffuse matter remaining, activity in the universe will have tailed off dramatically, with very low energy levels and very large time scales. Electrons and positrons drifting through space will encounter one another and occasionally form positronium atoms. These structures are unstable, however, and their constituent particles must eventually annihilate. Other low-level annihilation events will also take place, albeit very slowly.

    Sounds pretty boring alright BUT at least you would be the most complex being in existence from there on out..... taking over the mantle from the current champs - women.
