- jedberg 10y agoAmusingly the oldest living person happens to be tied for 7th today, but as long as she makes it to tomorrow, she'll move into 6th place.
- coldtea 10y agoSo, 40 in 7 billion. I don't think this refutes the article's analysis of the averages.

- bluedino 10y agoIf there are 7 billion on earth today, a much higher number than that have lived and died in a 120 year olds lifetime
