Elephants exhibit a wide variety of behaviors, including those associated with grief, learning, allomothering, mimicry, art, play, a sense of humor, altruism, use of tools, compassion, cooperation, self-awareness, memory and possibly language. All point to a highly intelligent species that are thought to be equal with cetaceans and primates.[/quote] And that'll make for a whole bunch of intelligent species, some of which have some practices similar to those of humans (including meditation-like feats), that these good ol' pink monkeys we are tend to eat or otherwise process. D'oh. All these species have elaborate societies that seem to provide them with great joy, and this might represent a possible alley for the survival of our own species. As for chemically controlled aging, I cannot prove this, but I suspect that the "let's age" trigger will not be found as a chemical component. Just like the Higgs Boson. For those are the places where control measures imparted to us by "the Universe" force introspection - less there would be no safeguard to the maintenance of that thermodynamic principle, which keeps the Universe going : life must counterbalance the action of entropy.
