Most of the smokers I've known don't even get close to 80, and are often very sickly when they do. Two family members that didn't make it to 60. A healthy looking co-worker who dropped dead in the parking lot. A former boss who didn't get to enjoy more than two years retirement.
Cigarettes are the only consumer product that, when used as directed, kill their consumers.

Additional points from the story:
No debris from an asteroid was found at the site, which is weird compared to other impacts. An alternate theory is the area was hit by a small (in mass), fast-travelling black hole. It would have struck, zipped through the earth, and then passed out through an ocean on the other side.
As long as the temperature is below 451F/233C, there should be no danger of fire.
Pro Tip: Keep masking tape in the kitchen. If you do something weird like storing a pizza in the oven, put a piece of masking tape over the oven dial as a reminder. Masking tape is good for putting a date on things going into the fridge too.
How are they for coming off ? The various reinforced tires I've tried (randoneur, gator, 25mm) are really hard to put back on. Like you peel the skin off your hands trying. I've notice that most tires, even cheaper ones, don't give you trouble for the first 500 miles. So have gone back to a medium grade tire that doesn't require special tools to replace.
You only needed a slim 50% to split? Not like a 2/3rds majority?
Regardless, I stay away from both irregardless.
But it's sunny everywhere in CA. Instead of building expensive, inefficient power lines that will have to cross environmentally sensitive areas, why not build solar roofs over the hundreds of miles of freeway that are already there? This will also provide shade for all those people stuck in traffic -- win/win !
I'm sceptical. That would be an extremely unethical test. And it would only prove that too much of something can kill you. Did you know that people can even die from drinking too much water?
I made my own app, and tracked calories, carbs, fiber, and potassium. I used data from USDA. What I found was that it was almost impossible to get the recommended amount of potassium unless you ate nothing but green leafy vegetables, or massively over-eat.
Yes, where I worked they generously gave you a 10 minute mid-morning break. Unless you were a smoker, and "needed" to slip out 5 minutes every hour. I often wondered if I could get away with just "smoking" a straw.
