(You have to type in your email address to take the test...but they don't send you anything, so feel free to type in a fake one :D ).



My life expectancy is 88.7 years.

Your calculated health span is 80.4 years.

I disagree with some of the questions as they do not apply, or contradict themselves. The fact that I have had Type I Diabetes since the age of eighteen months means that it should be significantly lower. On the plus side, a cure may well be available within the next five years or so, in which case, it is probably true.

There is also a professor that is developing medication that is claimed to increase the life expectency by around thirty years but increasing the metabolism and reducing free-radicals.

80.6 years.

There's no way--my current health habits would drive me into a grave by age 60 if I didn't improve them (then again, my folks are on the plus side of 60 and still healthy, so I dunno)

80.7 years, which, given my habits, can't be true, unless of course, technology really improves over the next couple of years.

I blame exposure to second hand smoke and Hamilton's air pollution for keeping me down. <_<

snowmanincave - April 3, 2005 02:38 AM (GMT)
*sigh* Value " " cannot be turned into a number....

Tout le what? Oh well. A lot of those questions don't work. I just assumed my not-dead parents would live to be over 80... :D

That's what Steel Town will do to you. At least the Camco area will get that new centre, actually bring some life to the place.
