I wouldn't take this too terribly seriously. Even though I was pleased with the initial result, I ran it several times, changing the parameters, then went back and ran it with the original parameters, and got a different answer each time...several of which informed me that I was already dead.  Roll Eyes

The first time I did it, I forgot to mention I was a smoker. Apparently smoking will take about 8 years off my life... ah, well.

Final calculation:  Wednesday, August 22, 2046   

So, I get to see 76 years old, whee. I'm not sure of the accuracy, though, because even though I'm not fat (apparently that's the main decider here), they forgot to take into account my diabetes, aka "My pancreas has decided to kill me disease"...

Ah, well, to the well-organized mind, death is but the next great adventure.

Oh, yeah, @Klynt, glad I'm not the only one who thought of that first.

Oh, that's my b-day...how sad.

Mine is Friday, November 3, 2062.  I'll be *counts on fingers* 79...I bet I'll live longer than that.  Average life expectancy for my generation is over 100, and I'm not THAT unfit.

88 years? Not a bad age to kick it. And me sitting here with a BMI of 46!
Of course I'm certain by then we'll have replaced most of our organs with synthetics, so the clock may need tweaking...

Same here, my good sir. It only seems fitting in a thread on the topic of...

This death doohickey is acctually pretty flawed for myself because it doesn't take into account all the noxious chemicals I come into contact with.
