Parangosky in GoO.
Posted By: Rice <Riceamike@gmail.com>	Date: 9/25/12 4:19 a.m.
In Response To: Re: Why I Hate Glasslands (Archilen) : Now that medical advances have been brought up, I think it's worth noting : that in Glasslands, KT wholly fails to acknowledge the fact that medical : science is supposed to have advanced between the present and 2553. For : instance, people consider Parangosky to be ridiculously old at age 90 and : she has all the medical problems of a modern-day elder. With 500+ years of : medical advancement and the ubiquity of technologies like organ cloning, : one could expect lifespans of over 120 to be completely normal, and 90 : years would be closer to 70 in biological years. About time I could reply to this. Reading through Ghosts of Onyx, and the description of Parangosky adds up with Traviss' writing. It describes her then age of 70 with being closer to 120, and looking incredibly frail. 30 years after this description, one can imagine her having health issues. Not all people are the same. Some just age worse. Preston Cole can be a fit 80 year old, but my grandfather is a fit 70, and I know other 70 year olds on their deathbed.
