how about if you just knew the day (like May 6th) but not the year...that way you would only have to sweat it once a year...
IMO- we should not keep track of our age, there is no good reason for this...there are plenty of beautiful 57 chevy`s still around , while newer model cars have blown engines...just take care of yourself, age is irrelevent ( If I only could convince myself now)

Raquel Welch would be the 57 Chevy. She still looks good @ 64!
Kirstie Alley would be the blown engine. What the hell happened to her? Has she been spending too much time with George Wendt?

Following FairWarning's link....
(now isn't that ironic that someone with the handle of FairWarning would give you access to a website "warning" you of your projected date of death?)
If I was pessimistic: Sat, May 30, 2015..
If I was optimistic: Sat, Sept 22, 2049.
If I was normal: Wed, Aug 25, 2038.
Yes, I am normal, but to whether or not optimistic or pessimistic......dunno what degree.....if I stay away from politics I will also stay away from pessimism and cynicism....if I just go about my days routine, then normal to slightly optimistic....

I'm certainly glad that people cannot find out when they are going to die. While many (including myself) would use the time to lead more productive and fulfilling lives, I fear that many would use the time to do more harm than good (murder, robbery (includes stiffing books), rape, etc.). Hell, people know they can go to prision and face the death penalty , which amounts to somewhat of a living hell, yet still commit crime. I cannot imagine what the world would be like if these people knew they were going to die on a certain day.
hey swami, that's a good point. People would go out and kill all the people they've hated for all these years, or go and kill all the guys who they are jealous of, like guys who have money, nice wife, and just living the great life.
It's sad but true. There will be some people out there who would say.. hey, if i am going to die in 4 days, why not take my ex girlfriend with me, and 7 other enemies of mine. Why should they live and continue on enjoying life,while i have to die.
This world would be chaos and you're right, people would be killing people on the street left and right, because it's not like they're going to prison for it.. They're dying in a few hrs anyways..

I will die on July 7th 2064, according to the website...I can work with that....
My problem with that website though is the body mass criteria, I am 5-10 , 208 lbs currently...a very in shape 208...now how does that translate into a dangerous range? That body mass criteria needs to be more precise, you can be 5-10 and look like a turd, or you can be 5-10 and have a 31 inch waist (like me), hey what the hell I am optimistic to live to be 105 atleast!

The exact date would be strange. There are people who know that they are dying from Cancer and AIDS, but they don't know the exact date. I think that if people knew the exact date, they would do a lot of crazy things. I know that I would like to know the exact date so I could do whatever is necessary to enjoy every last day.
