And what's 10 years...as long as you don't end up in a wheelchair with amputated legs, permanently attached to an oxygen cylinder, paralysed unable to speak from the effects of ciggies ..then 10 years might sound like a looong time.:-/ It’s silly to say that breathing in a cocktail of chemicals for years is harmful!

Since it was done in London and not Atlanta or say Chicago or even L.A., what mitigating factors of other cities around the world allow their population to live much longer. Most of the people in my family have all lived past 75 and well into their 80's. These are people I have personal experience been stressed beyond all limit, smoking and drinking, with exposure to dangerous chemicals,some of them raising and eating pork. so with all these factors taken out, I can only imagine the number of centurians there would have been in a hundred mile radius.I don't exactly agree with Zof/\, but until the medical community comes up with a way to give me the body of a young man, what's ten years going to do for you.

I never liked fat food, so that's also not really my thing. I never put salt in my food and I really eat a balanced dinner and however ADHD I sometimes am, I'm not very stressed- So there goes my chance at high bloodpressure. But I still don't want to have a long life...! ...Guess I'll stick to riding my motorbike in all weather and doing high-risk sports...

But I still don’t want to have a long life…!
