Buy liver,get kidney free:Man of the future

Man of the future
By Rajbir Deswal
I claim to be no Darwin, but I can foresee the (re?)evolution of the future man, in being half real and half plastic. Believe you me please, for it’s not me who says it, but the chip inside me.
With expectancy of life crossing the count of eighty years, for an average human being, one can imagine the assortments and appendages a human-body is likely to have, in times to come, when you may ‘buy a liver and get a kidney free!’
Take heart, for your so-called mortal frame will one day have, a built-in stenting, when a heart attack may just be as harmless, as a twitch near the left eye. Or your brain stroke may leave you more charged up, with renewed backup of battery power.
I can visualise pop-ins and slots in a man, where one could attach life support systems, as you do the earplugs to an iPod. You could also carry your oxygen cylinder like a pen in your pocket. Also your hornlike, evolved antenna, could make you stay connected at all times, with dedicated Intensive Care Units.
With a habit having had been by then, thawed into a kind of demeanour in you, on the psychological plane, you could have a set of robots as friends for socialising .You could programme them to suit your taste, and if they entertain you no longer, you could re-programme them. I gainsay, you could date them too and leave out the ‘out-dated’ ones.
With everyone getting fixed pretty looks on their faces, employing plastic surgery, there would be Most Ugly Look competitions to experience what would be called ‘ for a pleasant change’. Also the most hated people of the world could include Elvis Presley, Marlyn Munro, Anthony Quinn or Angella Jolly; or nearer home, Dev Anand or Madhbala.
All this will effect a change in human-emotions too. Expressions like love, affection, care concern, empathy could then be good stuff for making sci-fic movies. The Oscar winning flick could be the story of a man torn to pieces for offering to look after his old and infirm parents.
The positive side of the future man’s characteristics and capabilities, is seen by me as being able to see, store, play and repeat your best of the dreams on an LCD screen. Also you could retrieve your long forgotten memories of people, places and events. And delete permanently the traumas.
In such a scenario, when none would seem to gather upto the ancestors, then legislations like ‘Health for All’ may not be counted as political gimmicks. One would have all the Yoga experts either sent to Coventry or made to drink poison like Aristotle. And the medical specialists who would practice Hippocratic Oath would be rubbished as real hypocrites.

If you have take look at the anatomy of the future-man with me, then take note of his big head, for he will only use his brain. The inactivity of the limbs will make them grow smaller, due to disuse atrophy, since all jobs would be done by remote, or on-person, controls.
Even the denture is likely to suffer in size, for fast foods and synergy drinks would not entail much of jaw moment. One who could eat a sugarcane stem, by squeezing the juice, would be seen as the real terminator. Stomach size too will reduce, since supplements would take care or your digestion and metabolism. You could have your new and fresh mesh of intestine woven into your system, like you knit a sweater, if you want to have a complete overhaul.
But, would future man be a complete man then? I don’t really know.
