8.1 days. Never got to see the grandkids grow up, never got to play golf at St. Andrews.

"The genes and biochemical processes nematodes use are the same as those that humans and
other mammals use," elaborated Dr. Philip Anderson of the University of Wisconsin.
The Times connected the logical dots in their conclusion: "Ceaseless sperm production takes
its toll on a male, perhaps requiring the use of complex enzymes or biochemical processes that
have harmful metabolic e ects ... the di erence in lifespan between men and women [women
