I'm not going to die because medicine will soon progress to the point where most diseases of aging are cureable.

I'm not going to die because cryonic suspension and resuscitation will be perfected in my lifetime.

I'm not going to die because mind uploading will be made to work in the next few decades.

I'm going to die because people like me won't have access these technologies when they arrive.

THAT's why I'm going to die.

The solution to this problem is not technical; it's political.
