7/4 Posted November 26, 2006 Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 Jack Kerouac by 268 days. interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gould Posted November 26, 2006 Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 This doesn't really make sense to me. To my mind, "outlived" means "each born within a few years of each other, and one is dead." Not, "I'm 41 and this person died thirty years ago at 40, so I 'outlived' them." I "outlived" John Lennon when I was 14, not when I turned 40. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claude Posted November 26, 2006 Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 (edited) Silly concept, but interesting information. I'm surprised that Princess Di was only 36 when she died. I thought she was over 40. I hope it's not a bad sign that the next 4 in my list have been murdered (Martin Luther King, Che Guevara, Malcolm X, John Lennon) Edited November 26, 2006 by Claude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chalupa Posted November 26, 2006 Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 The problem w/ these age comparasion sites is that you inevitably wind up comparing your life to the people mentioned that you have already "outlived". A good way to give yourself a midlife crisis When my father turned 50 I gave him a birthday card that went something like.... Front: "You're 50! Say, did you know that by the time Mozart turned 50 he had written 20 operas, 41 symphonies, and was considered to be the greatest musician that had ever lived?" Inside: And he had been dead for 15 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
