Sorry if my argument was lost on you - I'll break it down to bite sized pieces -

1. I argued that the WHO data was unreliable. You defended it.

2. I demonstrated that their data on US longevity was wrong, and in support, posted a number of different sources that showed that the WHO data was wrong.

3. I argued that comparing the real US data with the WHO table demonstrated that the US was the longest lived population in the world.

4. The data that I rely on for the statement that Japan is, in fact, the longest-lived population in the world is the CIA sourcebook, which you scoff at.

Since I've demonstrated that the WHO data are unreliable, and you scoff at the CIA data, who shall we trust for information on aggregate health statistics? I trust you've at least abandoned WHO.
