Happy Halloween! Today is a good day to talk about death. Or rather, not
dying. Vampires may drink blood for immortality, but we are much more
scientific in our quest for immortality. Artificial hearts, extreme diets,
regenerative medicine....today on The Conversation, living forever. Is it
possible, is it ethical, is it for you? Join us on the air at 206 543 5869
