Life Extension Technology Survey Thank you for your being willing to take part in this anonymous survey. Your participation will help guide decisions about steps to take in the future with regards to significant advances in health and lifespan extending technologies that are emerging on the global horizon. XANATOS is actively participating in some of these advances. We wish to be responsible citizens during this sea-change in our understanding of life and health, and we are thankful for your assistance in understanding your views and thoughts on these issues and technologies. Again, thank you for your participation. Please note that this survey is completely anonymous. We collect no information that can link you to your actual identity in any way. We want you to be free to answer honestly knowing that you are safe and protected in this effort. Consider this scenario: You are in your sixties and a new, radical technology has emerged that has been successfully used and clinically proven to reverse cellular aging in humans. It has been approved by the FDA as the first treatment to actually reverse human cellular aging. While no claims are allowed by the FDA to be made as to its effect on overall lifespan extension, the evidence suggests that even if it doesn't extend actual lifespan, it does extend actual healthspan - meaning that you are able to continue to get older while maintaining your vigor, energy, health, strength and overall vitality. Furthermore, anecdotal evidence is building that lifespan itself may be being significantly increased, despite FDA moritoriums on such claims by anyone engaged in the business of producing this technology. Recently, you've read that some of the first subjects in initial human clinical trials have surpassed their hundredth birthday and are engaging in activities unheard of for centenarians. This treatment is called "Exosome Modulated Telomerase Upregulation Therapy", and is relatively easy to get and inexpensive. Enhancements and more effective treatments may be in clinical trials and could become available in as little as five years. Please answer the following questions based on the above information, and your personal beliefs and predilections.

1. How easy is it for you to imagine being 120 years of age AND having the strength, vitality and drive of a 35 year old? Very Easy, seems natural to me

Somewhat easy, but it's hard to undo all of human history's experience

Not quite so easy, but I'm willing to consider the possibility

No way, this simply goes against nature



2. Is it acceptable to you that humans can find a way to extend their health and vitality span, perhaps indefinitely, through an understanding of genetics and an ability to gain control of it? Very acceptable, hasn't come fast enough!

Somewhat acceptable, but there are issues that need to be addressed

The idea is interesting, but I think we may be messing with things that will get us into trouble

This goes against nature, and we are ill advised to try to change that



3. When you consider that not only you, but your children, and grandchildren - and beyond, may be able to move forward, experiencing the future together, what concepts and possibilities does this bring to mind?



4. How would you address the issues surrounding a population that could reach an age of, on average, 150, 200 or more? Considering issues of law such as retirement age, social security, medicare? Would it be acceptable for someone potentially able to live to an age of 200 to be eligible for social security at age 70? How would we need to adjust our system to compensate for these changes?



5. Do you believe death is not only a natural part of human existence, but that it is necessary and part of the proper order? It's only been so until now, we've been given intellect for a reason, time for a change

It serves a purpose, but it can be changed if we are careful

Yes, it is a natural equalizer and helps the species evolve

This is something we should not be messing with. It goes against nature.



6. Do you believe that humans have over-reached by delving into the areas that our sciences and ability to think and reason have allowed us to go? Yes. There are things we should not be changing that are set by the natural order. Leave them alone.

Maybe. We don't know for certain what we are doing, or why things are set up as they are.

Possibly, but as a species, we only evolve by testing our limits. Is this one real?

No way. Even if you believe in a supreme being, we were given an intellect to figure things out. This is one of those things.



7. Do you consider yourself religious, secular, or other? Not religious or spiritual, don't give it much thought

I consider myself spiritual but not religious

I'm an avowed atheist

I have strong religious ties



8. What gender do you identify with?



9. What is your age range? Under 30

31 to 40

41 to 50

51 to 60

61 to 70

71 to 100+





10. What level of education have you completed? Did not complete high school

High school grad

College Associates

College Batchelors

College 4 years plus

Masters, PhD or above





11. What do you hope for, for the future of humanity in general?







Thank you for completing this survey. We at XANATOS are working towards what we feel will be of great benefit to all life on Earth. But we want to know what you think and feel about certain changes coming up. Technology moves very fast, sometimes faster than reason can keep up with. We want to engage you in helping us modulate the inflow of the future in a way that benefits everyone, and helps us all to grow in new, unexpected and wonderful ways, that we can share with those we love most, in the ways that mean most to us. Your answers will help us achieve that goal, for us all. Thank you. RETURN TO XANATOS © 2020 Xanatos. All rights reserved in all media.
