   So it did,but I remember a tie being processed differently before   
   (one left the visible list and the other did not).   
      
   So Slim Pickens and Shari Lewis (who died at ages about a month apart)   
   both arrived on the older-than list,and Dick York and Donna Summer   
   will both leave the younger-than list tomorrow.   
      
   (Has there ever been a list of sequential oldest living people   
   in the database?...I know right now it's Eva Marie Saint,though   
   she would be bumped if Violet Brumley Hensley(born 1916),   
   Sir Lloyd Geering(1918),Virginia McCaskey(1923),or   
   William H. Webster(earlier in 1924 than Saint) were ever added   
   before dying,and I suppose the chance and possible history of such   
   displacements makes such a list problematic).
