What about 40 years from now?

I refuse to be paralyzed by a future so distant it's opaque. I'll be in my 70s at that point, and either dead, head in a jar, or living on Mars. My genetic data may help people today, and that is what matters most to me.

EDIT: @monocasa: The future is what we make of it.

jstarfish: As a parent, I have to make what I consider to be the best choices for them until they're able to make their own choices. As an educated parent, I believe I made the appropriate choice. Everyone's DNA will be sequences eventually.

By the time we're in our 70s, we'll probably not even have retired. : \

You're selling out your kids for the sake of irrelevant novelty though. You're taking away any choice they have to abstain from being part of the system.
