>>20) A. Did both your parents die before age 75 years of non- accidental causes?
YES NO

B. Or, did they both (or one of them if the other died before age 75) require daily assistance by the time they reached age 75?
YES NO <<<<

yep...definite flaw...

obviously you cannot answer the question as posed...

and if you can, like i did, i believe the question infers genetic propensity....and in my parents case, their deaths before 75 was due to smoking related illness....(lifestyle)

I thought the most interesting question was the floss daily question. I did a bunch of research on this b/c I was interviewing for a dental implant sales position. The link between gum disease and heart disease has a really strong correlation and is starting to be considered very important by cutting edge cardio-pulm specialists.

I thought that was interesting.
