As for me, I'm not so in love with myself or the world that the idea of immortality sounds even moderately appealing. Spending eternity in the company of immortal people? Bleah.

Immortality in any practical sense of the word does not mean eternal life. Even if we have fountain-of-youth-type medicine, people are still going to get run over by buses.

Honestly the bus problem sounds easier to solve than the fountain of youth thing.
