You've got so much to do! There's so little time! Will you have enough? The Life Expectancy Calculator says it "can't give you an exact answer" (well duh!), "but we can show you the averages based on your age, sex, family history and personal lifestyle. We'll add and subtract years based on your answers." It's not what I'd call perfect (e.g., there's no answer between carefully eating only low-fat foods with five servings of fruit and veggies per day, and eating a high-fat diet), but at least it gives you some basics -- not counting getting hit by a bus. As for me, it thinks I'll live to be 96, which means I can keep doing This is True for quite some time to come.
