   I have not attained the summit of longevity,   
   but I HAVE surpassed the longevity of Summitt.   
      
   I was surprised to see Lee Marvin still on the younger-than   
   list as I thought he was the next to be dropped (I was tied   
   with him the first time I tried this feature)...has someone   
   just disappeared from the database,by 50-year rule or otherwise?   
   Sorrell Booke is next for me to overtake,while Cheryl Holdridge   
   appears in the distance.
