Our friends at
Doctorsgadgets have a short overview
of recent replacement parts for the human body.
Everything from an
eye
to an
anus.
These advances will inevitably lead to discussions about
how far a person is willing to go to extend life.
Humans currently accept false teeth, hair, and even
limbs, but
will they accept living in a body where most of the components are
electro-mechanical?
If the current debate about implantable
ID chips is any indication, many
will draw the line soon.
Of course, it remains to be seen whether advances in electro-mechanical
replacements will occur before
biological ones.
