How old will you be on October 23, 2077?

I'll be two weeks and two days above 82 years old.

Do you think we'll all log onto our quantum PCs and celebrate that the world didn't end?

I'm going to take a gamble and say most of us are European or American, and we might have a good shot to survive the predictable crises of this century intact, especially if we keep our economies and technology going. I think, realistically, 80 and 90 will still suck, but that we might enjoy our 50s and 60s much better than previous generations.

It really does beg the question - why live so long? The twilight isn't as glorious as the dawn, and it's so much longer. Who wants to be a wrinkled old wreck for most of their lives, even with advancements in technology? I severely doubt we could just cut out our brains and put them into hot cyborg bodies, even by 2070. It's almost 2020. For the guys here who were aware and experienced the 90s, I would like to hear what you guys thought the world would be like now. To me, nothing's changed since 1995 save computer tech.

94. At that age, I might seek out that doctor Eddie Winter went to. (expects things to be thrown at me....)

But in all seriousness, I wouldn't mind living forever
 
I wouldn't want to live to 2077 in the first place, senile, weak, wrinkly and rotting in some nursing home. And the apocalypse could happen next month, next year, 10 years from now, who knows.
 
I'll be... 78 years, 0 months, and 3 days old
or 936 months 3 days old
or 4070 weeks 3 days old
or 28,493 days old
or 683,832 hours old
or 41,029,920 minutes old
or 2,461,795,200 seconds old

Or more than likely dead as hell.
 
I'll be 78 years old, and hopefully still going strong. It'd be a pretty cool story to tell the grandkids about how that day was significant in a fictional universe some time ago, and then about the Fallout series in general. Maybe, just maybe, I could get the youngins to play the games too, just like their grandpappy did. Then I could die happy.
 
81, there is a chance I make it. Still, my grandpa died from cancer, so I am not betting on it.

Hopefully I will live long enough for cybernetics to keep me going and not going senile.
 
85. Well... now I'm just depressed. Thanks guys. Gonna go contemplate my lack of life achievements now and how I spend all day on the internet.
 
Says here on this calculator gizmo that I would be 88 years old. I don't think that I would live that long but if I did, I can only hope they unlock the secrets of immortality by then. If not, well I think it's safe to say we are all boned.
