Recently talked to an actuary-type mathematician and a Dept of Agriculture scientist. They indicated that while mean life span once incrementally increased during 20th century USA, the available 21st century data no longer supports any future trend of consistent and incremental increases for the mean or median life expectancy.
My theory is that Dihydrogen Monoxide is not the specific root cause. The obvious problem is diatomic and monatomic forms per atomic number 8. It has eventually killed all humans that breathe it; that is, it is 100% fatal after any significant length of exposure. It can be a serious safety hazard for both normal and hazloc classified environments, and is a common long-term cause of failure for electrical equipment. As for EM environments, from my late teens to my mid 20s, was constantly bathed in Ka to Ku band radiation. Did not affect my physical health, and as far as can be determined, and may have improved my mental health.... Do drink the water. Do not breathe the air.
