X-Message-Number: 16227 Date: Mon, 7 May 2001 12:23:41 -0400 (EDT) From: Natasha Vita-More <> Subject: Informationweek quotes Max More on Ellison and Gates I really liked this quote: "Bill Gates has also invested millions in biotech, but his funding seems to be more focused on curing disease, says Max More, president of the Extropy Institute: 'Ellison is more interested in funding research for dramatic extension of the human life span.' One Ellison Medical Foundation grant went to a University of Idaho researcher who's studying the longevity of birds, which can live six times longer than mice, even with similar metabolism and body size."
