I reread the OP, you're right, but it sounds also like it's continuing?
And YES! Some researchers/scientist types found a way to actually reverse the aging!
To what degree, it wasn't stated, but I got the impression it is limited. But, hell! they lost their grey hair! I think the real implications are for things like Alzhiemers and such. I want to be in my late 20's again, myself.
I find this proccess the OP is talking about very interesting, there are some very interesting things that could be done if it can be controlled. Any ideas on what triggers it?
