- jack9 9y agoThere's true, false, not proven. It (claim to be 120+ years old) is not proven. Necessarily, it's not true. If it becomes true in the future, the studies would be interesting. That's obvious. Basing any sort of continued argument or worse, research, on wishful thinking is something left up to you.
