Life-Gap Awareness Day

Submitted by Hombre on Thu, 2003-12-04 12:06

Henry Vincent writes "I'd like to propose that Dec. 7 be recognized as Life-Gap Awareness Day. Men in the Western world die on average 5-6 years earlier than women. This works out to around 24 days a year less that men have to live than women. The number of days from Dec. 7 to the start of the new year would represent the difference in the amount of lifespan between men and women each year.

Anyone think this is a good idea?"



Sounds like a great way to get the message out to me.
