Just musings, but .... I suppose say 100 years ago the average life expectancy would be (what) 45 years. This probably isn't late enough in a human life to develop cancer and the multitudinous other 'modern' diseases which we eventually succumb to nowadays.
What did people die of 100 years ago ?? (basa nips of to answer some company emails and google a bit
)
