I don't know. I've sat and politely listened to comic book geeks until my eyes rolled up into my head, but if I ever need to know something about a comic book I ask one of them. Same with computer, film, science fiction, astronomy, even gardening, for gods' sakes. Talk to the ones who've done the most coding, watching, reading, researching. It's a good Starting Place.

Right. Because that 80-year+ life span has nothing to do with developments in water treatment, sewage removal, housing, refrigeration, or discoveries of bacteria and viruses, developments of antibiotics, vaccines, insulin, or any of the myriad drugs for the myriad diseases and conditions which have been discovered. Nor medical/surgical/dental procedures with ever more delicate and, increasingly, non-invasive instruments. And advances in understanding the human body and its nutritional needs and ways to meet those needs, pre-birth to old-age. Not to mention hospitals that are no longer the germ-soaked, infection-spreading ... hum, forget this one. I expect to continue consuming food as "natural" as I can get, mainly, and since I have already passed, by many years, the 25-year lifespan you have arbitrarily pulled out of your nether eye, I'll discount your opinions regarding diet. And to celebrate, I think I'll have a coke.
