Right now there is a certain subject that is really starting to fasinate me. This is living beyond the age of 130 or higher. The biggest this that fasinates me is the possibly second(for males) or third(for females) puberty state. Maybe we grow two more sets of arms? Maybe our brains shed and we take all minerals and vitimins to enhance our brain and become super intelligent. What if we go through this certain stage and go through a metamorphsis? Would we still be considered human beings?

Basically what I'm asking is what do you think about this? What are your opinions on what we could change into or become or some of the changes that could or can happen to our bodies at these unattainable ages?
Also, please click "interesting" if this intrigues your learning. I'd like to get as many opinions as I can.

We eventually may be able to turn off the genetic marker which signals the cells in our body to stop regenerating themselves. Then, we could theoretically live forever.
But, then, I don't see a metamorphosis occurring within an individual. However, I can see an evolutionary process over hundreds of generations which would allow the progeny of these endless people to become quite different then we are today.
You have brought up an interesting idea. Thanks for that.
