A little more geek pleasure

The Next Invasion by Robert Reed.

A clever short story, though I admit I'm not sure that recounting the explanation was plausible. On the other hand, it was so cool that I can live with it.

Does anyone remember the title of the Reed story about what human cultures would be like if people had evolved with no aging?

"A Plague of Life".

I thought that was one of the most brilliant stories I'd ever read and was astonished that it wasn't nominated for any awards.

Thanks. It hasn't even been anthologized.
