I spent quite a while trying to work out how underwear can give you cancer.

Presumably it would have to be Japanese underwear :->

Me too, but it seems like a sensible idea now that I read the article.

I thought the big difference in life expectancy would be at the 25% mark or lower, but it's actually closer to the 50% mark.

On the other hand, this is about people who make it to 65, so my guess might be more accurate about overall life expectancy.

I think you should stop reading articles about the AV referendum. I'm sure it's doing your blood pressure no good.

[andrewducker]

You're probably right :->

I'm somewhat enjoying the process of people sifting through the wreckage though - it's good to see that people are learning from the failures, and why it happened.
