Immortality #2

  I know that all the interns have overheard or snooped around enough in my files to surmise that Igor and I are immortal, but I wonder if they think it's just some personal gallows humor joke between Igor and myself. Wouldn’t be a stretch after what they see in this lab.
  I sometimes toy with the idea of secretly imbuing the interns with the chimera protein, but the procedure isn’t quite as quick as an inoculation or the simple swallowing of a pill. Plus, how would they be able to understand their condition with their own personal health maintenance professionals or even their families when in forty years they still appeared as they did in their early twenties?
