Does this really mean anything? I've never been a vegetarian or
anything,
eat mostly meat -- so the above sounds great to me. <G> But, lets just
say
vegetarian women do somehow live longer than meat-eating women (this is
hypothetical, folks)
then
the fact that more of them died every year doesn't mean a thing --
there would simply be more, say -- 90 to 100 year olds amongst them. Maybe
I'm too simplistic
to
understand statistics like this. Enlighten me, please.
