 Re: Just got back from getting lasik
I've seen this stuff advertised for $200 per eye. I wonder how good those people are who seem to charge so little.

True story bro, google that shit. The one that impressed me the most was when they were talking about the nanobots that would give you so much O2 that you could run full out for hours without getting winded and swim underwater for hours without coming up for breath. It's gonna happen, but I dunno about the 20 year timeline...

 Re: Just got back from getting lasik
you're gonna hear a lot of shit over your lifetime about miraculous things on the horizon that arne't even possible, and if they are they wont' do as advertised, nanobots are one of those things, they have been created unless Im mistaken, but they probably arne't if ever going to produce medical miracles as they say they are.

 Re: Just got back from getting lasik
longevity science there have been some real advances in this field and some of the theories are really exciting. I think we have missed the window though. From everything i have read it seems like when my grandchildren are 40-50 will be the start of real results. F*CK missed it by so little. http://www.spc.uchicago.edu/coa/

 Re: Just got back from getting lasik
Well I'm glad you got the procedure and that it went well. I guess I can say I'm really lucky to be born with 20-15.

I know this is an easy BS call, but you read in the bible about people living to be at least 2-3-4-5-6-7-8-900 years old and about dragons and shit. There's this guy called " Dr. Dino" who's been talking about this stuff and basically his theory is that before the asteroids and shit that fucked with the atmosphere, the earth's oxygen concentration used to be at least 3x what it is now, and that was the cause for Dragons (aka Dinosaurs) and tall-ass humans who lived to be hundreds of years old. The name links to his website and you can watch all kinds of footage about it, including how he found a footprint of a human next to one of a dinosaur in a fossil and how Nova covered it up in order to promote their brand of evolutionary theory.

 Re: Just got back from getting lasik
Were you nearsighted, or farsighted? I have contacts, but they make things blurry. Was thinking of getting Lasik done. Are you overall happy?
