To take your question literally, if I really stopped aging, I think I'd be of great interest to everyone because probably most people would like to know how I'm doing it, how I'm not aging. So I think that Science people would want to study me and should they be able to figure out how I'm doing it, to share that with the rest of the world. I'd make myself available for study. If they figured out how I'm accomplishing the not aging thing and then if they discovered how to make that ability available to others I think I'd be happy about that. But at that point I think it would suddenly become a thing that is clearly wildly valuable beyond belief, the ability to transfer the not aging thing to others, and I think the horrible world of patents and copyrights in this country would rear its ugly head as everybody would want to be able to cash in on it, and the science folk want their piece in perpituity, and powerful people without anything invested in it would probably come along and try to garner some control over it, and i think religion would come along and try to strap it down with ridiculous rules as they do everything, and so I think it would be quite a thing. But, yes, if I could be able to tell my most beloved family and friends that I could share that secret with them and have them in my life for as long as possible, longer than I'd ever be able to dream of before, then yes, I'd share it with the world.
