I partially share your views, but, if you've not already, I'd highly recommend watching one of Aubrey de Grey's talks on the subject. He offers a very different viewpoint, which made me reconsider my thoughts on radical life extension.

As a member of the tl;dr culture, who is too lazy to Google for them himself, I want to ask if you could link the ones you find most interesting/relevant?

The one I attended was https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDJ_IjMwT20, which focuses less on whether this stuff is desirable and more on cost-effectiveness. But IIRC he also outlines his reasons why radical life extension is desirable.

You may well be better off trying some of the top Google results -- the recording quality isn't brilliant for this one, and its focus is perhaps a little different to what you want.
