Longecity

http://www.longecity.org/

Humankind has made countless achievements and overcome endless obstacles since the beginning of its existence. There are many more incredibly gracious opportunities and grand challenges ahead of us. This movement works to defeat aging and achieve Unlimited Lifespans.

Much of the world still believes that nothing can be done about the traditional death that aging has imposed upon everyone that has ever been born. We can now combat aging, and are already successful in similar cases.

As we all know, these are rapidly advancing times. Science and biology have been continuing to perfect their abilities, working on our bodies, then within them, and now within our very cells themselves. Science has defeated many forms of affliction and damage that accumulate in a variety of cellular diseases. Now, science is working to defeat the types of affliction and damage that accumulate to cause aging.

Achieving Unlimited Lifespans is now only a matter of the speed at which the world works to accomplish this.

We all have a chance to benefit from Unlimited Lifespans. Join us at http://www.longecity.org/ and help us get the word out. We need all new incoming support like there is no tomorrow.

What you can do:

-Register at http://www.longecity.org/ and then answer the questions that are pinned in the introduce yourself section.

It’s as simple as that. Our staff then takes this information and contacts you to help you get in where you fit in and are interested.

Longecity Projects:

Some notable past projects include the documentary, Exploring Life Extension – the book, The Scientific Conquest of Death – and hosting International Conferences.

Many of our present projects can be found in the Action section of our forum, and are too numerous to list.

Our future projects include the continued development of plans to inform the world, and help see this causes research through to fruition. Developing of local groups of enthusiasts and advocates for life-extension is essential for its success.

Regional Chapters

http://www.longecity...egional-forums/

Longecity Regional Chapters are here to facilitate you with regular online and/or real time meetings for the purpose of helping to advance our cause of Advocacy & Research for Unlimited Lifespans.

As this cause continues to grow toward a movement, and eventually a mainstream item on the world’s agenda, it is inevitable that we will not be able to maintain an almost wholly online presence alone.

Here is your chance to help pioneer some of the first Longecity regional groups and help us continue to grow into all that we can and will be. Click on your area at http://www.longecity...egional-forums/

And join your local group. Staff will be here to help guide you through anything you may need help with.

There are no commitments and we can coach on you getting going and becoming a successful regional group if you request such assistance.

 

We can help by providing things such as sample agendas, project ideas, potential grant packages, and flexible scheduling that works for your group. We are also here to help you build these groups.

If you wish you get involved in Longevity Advocacy at a Grass Roots level please sign up below, or just join the discussion at Longecity Regional forums. Posts and articles in national languages are especially appreciated! http://www.longecity...egional-forums/

 

Through local groups we can facilitate real action around the world.

What do local chapters do?

-schedule chapter meetings
-schedule your own agendas or choose from suggested agendas

I've been trying for a long time to get my
family members and friends interested in
life extension, sending them links to this
forum, and possibly starting a subforum
for Malaysia.

No luck, and seems I am the only one here.


An entire post in this Malaysian Alzheimer's
caregivers' forum giving links to numerous posts
on herbs and supplements in the Alzheimer's thread
here under "Medicine and Diseases", was deleted.

Apparently these one-tracked minded people
don't take kindly to alternative medicine.
The website, blog and forum is probably
sponsored by the drug firms and Malaysian
Medical Association.

Thank you for your interest in starting a chapter. Being the first in your area, your first task is to create a flyer advertising a chapter in your area.

Write a short description of why people should want to attend a Longecity Chapter Meeting in your area and include the link to the chapters. If you want help with it then let me know. Then pick a number of flyers you want to put up and how often. Ill write this in to my list here and then send you a reminder every time you indicate. You might choose just one time for one month, twice a year, quarterly, bi monthly, monthly, etc.

I am still at it.

But,
excuse me for being curious. I prefer a sample to go with rather than being a pioneer. Please send me the links submitted for flyers / meetings announced for my reference.

Please choose any time you feel necessary to remind me. Unfortunately, I just do need the push. Maybe weekly to start with?

Here is a topic where I record what I did at my meetings:
http://www.longecity...-point-chapter/

You could follow that same general approach.

Here is a topic with some sample agenda ideas so far:
http://www.longecity...gested-agendas/

If you hold a meeting where you have a computer then you could even put me on Skype and I can attend and help you with the meeting. My Skype id is brokenportal.

The most important part of the first meeting is just getting to a spot and sitting there for 30 minutes to an hour and a half or so.



Secular Pro Transhumanist, what exactly do you mean by "Any Miles"? Does that include India?

[ksbalaji]

I am still at it. ( I have resolved to be so -ever)

Now, after months of experimenting, I find it easier to ridicule deathists. It is easier than trying to rope in people to accept the concept of immortality or to get them join organisations like longecity and lead them to appreciate regional or language chapters. Mockery is really causing cognitive dissonance in them and effectively shuts them into silent thinking. In the meantime, I am able to pass on the information at my disposal for their thought. I do not worry about any formal or informal meets now-a-days as I have found it difficult organizing them or maneuvering the situation to stay put to our topic. Moreover, I am not that convinced about regional / language chapters growing great without active central guidance. I simply grab the situation whenever a chance occurs and start the abuse. I admit that It is a bit crude. But, I need the job to be done that too immediately. Would not it be great if someone arranged for a grand mockery of deathism?

still a priority!

I absolutely believe in curing death once and for all. A good idea to slow down, not cure is to do trial tests for young people to donate blood to the elderly, to see if the treatments will make them more healthier, may even slow down or reverse the process. If donors cannot be found, we can try using synthesized blood as an alternative. I believe trial tests are already been done, or maybe not.
