Good news! That means if you get the “good to go” certificate from the doctor at birth one can party hard, smoke, and drink to ones hearts content! Gotta love this study. Damn, I wish I had known this when I was a young adult. //sarc off//

OR affect how much they can charge you for life insurance or deny you.

Yes: Now they can charge more for their insurance for people who are going to live a long time and give a break to those who won’t

In obamaland, every medical advance will be welcomed . . . except the discovery of the “gay” gene.

My never fail blood test is to prick my finger. If it bleeds, it means I’m going to live.

Did you mean:

Yes: Now they can charge more for their insurance for people who aren't going to live a long time.

I'm pretty sure you didn't seriously think they'd give anyone a break...

Does it cover being hit by a bus or assault by a member of a racially privileged class?

My grandfather lived to almost 93
My grandmother lived to 75, but died from a heart attack.

She had 8 sisters and 1 brother. The next youngest to die was 81, from cancer. A few made it to latter 80's and a 4 made it into their 90's, with her sister 1 year younger than her, missing her 100th birthday by a few months.

My other grandmother missed her 101st birthday by 4 months.
I don't know anything about that grandfather or any of their siblings.

Seems like I could be genetically inclined for long life.

The danger of this new knowledge is applying it to the Ezekiel Emanuel approach to abortion, coming to a clinic near you...
