This seems pretty explainable by Seventh Day Adventists' behavioral factors leading to increased life, a group with very little smoking and drinking living longer isn't surprising.

It's a very interesting article, and maybe I'm missing something but I am confused at where they get some of the details in Iceland. At the beginning they say there is just the census record and nothing else, then later they speci

The most striking thing about all this is just how bad everyone on Adams staff and himself were at it. When I worked for a local government I was told all my communications could get FOIAd so to be careful about what I did and I wasn't

120 lb draw weight I could see, even 150 for a test or a little more. That still leaves us 100 lb short of whats being said here so I still think the 300 lb figure is either an exaggeration or a translation/conversion issue. I did some

I think there must be a conversion issue there. An English Longbow topped out at like, 110 lb draw weight I don't think you could make a 300 lb bow, and if you did I don't think anyone could draw it without straining their shoulde
