    Australians are a morbid Bunch



    Australians are a morbid bunch

    http://www.greendaily.com/2008/06/10...-morbid-bunch/

    I especially liked filling out the greenhouse calculator to see how long I will live, with how I live now.





    Challenge me, or correct me, but don't ask me to die quietly.

    It says I will die at 9.9... I guess the calculator missed that prediction by about 20 years...

    Or did that mean 9.9 years from now???

    Gentleman you need to observe the little red numbered indicators that go up to # 11, you need to make a selection on each number then hit the skull & Crossbones. I fortunately will live forever according to the outcome of my test.

    IN case you did fill in each one of those 11 Questions and answered each one with the low scores your getting. I suggest you change your lifestyle!

    Good Luck with everyone else who views this curious find on the net.

    Well you have ten years till you die Beerknurd, I forgot one little ditty in my explanation. Try the slide on the last question, if you move it to the left too far and become negative numbers on the little pig in the center, your life is shortened drastically.

    Good Luck

    Beerknurd it means you have to change your ways of living with recycling your waste streams into something useful. Be mindful of the world around you, don't just be a user.

    It's funny that simply by making more money you have a worse score. Obviously there is a certain bias in the score weighting.

    actually, it's not making the money but how you spend it. try maxing out the money on page ten, then adjust the slider on eleven and see the huge difference.
