| Are we talking about simply changing one's appearance to look younger, or to actually reverse the aging process, making one physically younger? If it's the former, it wouldn't really change much, because you'd only l ook younger. I imagine that such technology would mainly be used by middle-aged adu... |

| Ok...so apparently I interpreted this idea different than others. It seems that the consensus is that it most people wouldn't like to go back to the childhood that they actually had --and I would agree on that one. But the way I read it, I was thinking that the question was whether you would willing... |

| I think I would do it, pretty much for the reasons that Irulan mentioned in the OP. People are more understanding of a child acting awkward or lacking "common sense" then they are of older teens like myself. Also, kids can get away with a lot. I didn't enjoy childhood that much the first time, but I... |

| For me it is because the characters all seem to have a colored outline, just as if you look though thick lenses. Also, the contrasts are all wrong and different letters are differently colored. This makes text harder to read for me. But I guess this is a matter of taste. Well...a matter of taste, a... |

Is it just because I'm obsessed with the show, or does it seem like every 3rd thread on this site somehow mentions/references/is about Doctor Who?
That's not even counting usernames, avatars, and signature lines....

Being a virgin doesn't really have anything to do with sexual orientation...You can be a virgin and still be attracted to males and/or females. |

One thing I find funny about Dr. Who is that all the people (and aliens), all across time and space, have British accents (and the British government always han... |

I notice the types of cartoon characters that I fancy are also the kinds of people I look for in real life. BT... |

As much as I hate to admit it, my main email address is an AOL address (leftover from when my family used AOL's dialup), so most of the time, I just use AOL's webmail.
In fact, I don't ever remember using a desktop email client with my AOL mail. |
