So lets just drop that whole 'medical' thing...

Should humans just be cared for like machines?



"... the body is mass produced but at the moment it doesn't have any replaceable parts. OK, we're making artificial organs. But this is just a medical approach. What we really need is a design approach. If you have a heart that wears out after 70 years, this to me is an engineering problem. We should start to re-engineer the body."

Take that proverbial can of worms! This would assume death is a flaw.
